Legend is a word used too much but Kev really was one. He could fix anything, was generous and authentic. I remember our times in EL Salvador fondly. The world will truly miss someone of Kev’s calibre.

I had pleasure working with Kevin in ABB in Moscow. I will always remember his kindness, cheerful spirit and supportive and positive attitude. Kevin will be truly missed. My sincere condolences.

Big Kev, rest in peace! You were a legend in El Salvador, bringing smiles to so many people and always so community minded. It was a pleasure to cross your path.

And so farewell my true and close friend. Deeply respected by me and all who knew you. Your passing is already sorely missed. Ye’ll tak the low road and I’ll tak the high road But ye’ll be in Pen-Y-Ffrith afore me.

Only just learned that Kevin has passed on and feel quite shattered by the news. A great friend whose company was always a joy. I’ll miss you mate.

To Helen, Louise and Claire, I am so sorry for your loss. Your dad was such a great character. My thoughts are with you. Love Jolene x

Kev – you were the best of mates for 60 years – teenagers to ‘ol duffers – a lifetime of great memories in so many places around the world, instantly picking up where we left off – I’ll miss you like a brother Pete

remembering you .thank you for the memories,

We are so sad to hear of Kevin’s passing. Kevin was such a joy and supportive person with all our family and we will truely miss him. We are so grateful for the times we had and will treasure our memories always. Sending love to Claire, Helen, Louise and all of your families.

I am so very saddened to find out that Kevin has passed on, and I send heartfelt condolences to his friends and family. He was very kind, easy going, generous and good natured, was I’m sure a great teacher, an inspiring role-model, a wonderful father, partner, grandfather, and was so knowledgeable and interesting to talk to. He happily offered use of his land to host a nature conservation project up on the Denbigh Moors 10 years ago. I wanted to contact him to update him what happened, but it sadly wasn’t to be. He is greatly missed. RIP Kevin

Miss you and Jo so much . Such great friends . Great times ! Great memories – in Armenia, in NZ and in Scotland . THE BEST . P X X X
