I am deeply saddened by the premature loss of Kevin; a greatly respected and admired colleague and friend. Words are superfluous and cannot express the sorrow felt for you and your family.Thoughts of comfort and condolences to the grieving family.
Devastated to hear this sad news. I worked with Kevin for many years at Allstream and he was always “the person “ you could depend on for his expertise and honesty. He will missed by his many colleagues.
As a young teenager asked to babysit Kevin and his 5 brothers on a number of occasions, I can still see Kevin with his big smile and bright eyes.
He has left a bright light with all of us and the world needs more Kevins.
My heart is with Cathy and family and all of Kevin’s brothers and their families. I know he will be missed by all.

He was always so patient with me when I kept bugging him to show me how to do things – because of that patience, I was able to learn a lot from him. He was one of the nicest guys on the planet and he will be sadly missed. RIP, Kevin.
My first memory of Kev was when he was 19 and was with the Katimavik group planting trees in Manitoba. He spent a few days visiting with brother Tom before catching his flight home to Toronto. I vividly recall the ride to the airport after a late night out partying, me driving in my old Mercury Capri, ‘haha’, we were late as always, and it was snowing as always, and we were busting ass to get there on time. Hit a patch of ice and did a complete 360 in front of traffic, Tom and I in the front as if nothing had happened, glanced back at poor Kev in the back, white as a ghost, eyes like saucers and said, ”think you can do that one again!!” We all laughed but i truly think he was glad to finally get on the plane. And I have loved him forever more. Bless his soul xoxox
CThy, I am so saddened by this news and by your loss. Cherish your memories and be strengthened by them.
Dear Cathy and Family,
So sorry for your loss. Our hearts and thoughts are with you and your family. It sounds like he brought joy and laughter to everyone he met.
