He was a mailman for 30 years and enjoyed his years in Cape Elizabeth and loved the Northern Maine woods.Kevin was overjoyed when he retired and moved full time to Greenville, gateway to Moosehead Lake. He loved his family, friends and playing the drums. He also enjoyed canoeing, fishing, snowmobiling, moose watching, hiking and just driving the roads in northern Maine. His favorite season was fall and leaf peeking was always the best on his birthday.Kevin was a kind, gentle, loving man always willing to help anyone he could. His knowledge of rock and roll was better than most people.
