He knew and poorly sang the lyrics to every classic rock song and enjoyed frequent rounds of golf with good friends. Manomet Beach was his favorite place where he spent time vacationing with family. Above all, Kevin loved his family and will be remembered for his kindness, generosity; and of course, his stubbornness. The family wish to express their gratitude to all those who cared for him during his illness including the doctors and staff at the Perelman Center for Advanced Medicine, Rhonda Monahan and the caregivers at Monahan Eldersitters, the second floor nurses, aides, and staff at Good Shepherd Village at Endwell, and the numerous friends who showed so many acts of kindness over the years.
