Heather & Family, We are sorry to see this. Your Dad worked with my hubby at Hamilton Systems and I know that since he left there they had some contact but no sure how much. I met him at one of the shows that he and Donny were doing-good guy always a smile.

Our deepest sympathies to Kevin’s loved ones. Roger knew Kevin for 60 plus years, growing up together on the “East Side” of Grafton. Every day was an adventure hanging around with Kevin! Lots of interesting times together and usually ending up at Felmo’s on Burgamott. He will be missed.
Roger and Sandy Stark
When I think of Kevin, I smile. I remember hanging with the EastWood Boys and what a character he was. That’s a long time ago, late 60’s. Those fun Grafton times.
May you catch all the fish you can handle, in Heaven!! My sympathy and prayers for his family and close friends, Mike B, Jim F, Jim A.
Kevin will be missed.
He was a kind person.
Our sympathies to the family.

I met Kevin thru my nephews seed business in Houghton, SD a few years ago. His knowledge of the equipment, treatments, and the right way to do things is irreplaceable. He was the answer guy. He always quickly responded to our needs and questions. His smile, wit, and friendship will always be missed. When in the area he would call and stop by for a chat. He always had a new tale to spin. Kevin loved his family, lake home, and life. A loss to all who knew him. Rest in peace friend!
To the family of Kevin: I worked at Wensman Seed and Kevin participated in many of our dealer meetings. I held Kevin in high regard as a seed treatment specialist. We enjoyed many meals and after meeting sessions as we traveled on the circuit. I thoroughly enjoyed Kevin’s company and am saddened to learn of his passing. May he Rest In Peace. My condolences. Dan Sartell
lots of hockey trips with that guy
Our condolences! We just returned from vacation and were saddened to hear of Kevin’s death. Many memories of the time spent together. Lloyd and Claudia Thompson
I am so saddened to learn of Kevin’s passing. I first met Kevin in the auction industry and he was always the one I could trust. I quickly learned to appreciate Kevin and he had great respect from me up in Canada. Kevin treated me as a friend even after we both left the business but would still cross paths at the odd trade show. My sympathies to Kevin’s family and friends.
I worked A lot of auctions with Kevin and we always had a fun time.
