what a great send off Keb love forever

Well mate had to say good bye today you have been a big part in my life I have lived with you and your family worked with you and raced your car with you I couldn't of asked sandy for a better brother in-law and a bloody true blue mate always in my heart and thank you ❤️

Uncle Kevin, I was weirdly always formal with your name, I found it hard to call you Mac..hahaha however, childhood memories at Ruapehu st (apparently I wasn't born until then haha which makes sense) everything about that house was my weekends, being dragged along by Mum n dad, going to see uncle Dennis in his caravan, watching you and Dad in the shed! It's funny because I grew up most comfortable sitting in a shed watching and learning about cars and what not, speedway was all about you. Your daughters are all stunning, and a true credit to you and aunty Sandy. You would have been insanley proud of all your loves today, it was hard, but a send off fit for a true ledgend that you are. Forever in my heart, huge loss to our family 🥰 until we meet again x

Love to all the family. Had some wonderful childhood memories with you all (speedway etc). And reconnecting again in the last few years has been wonderful. Thinking of you all hugs and kisses

It was so great being able to catch up with you and Aunty Janice when we were in NZ in April. We had a chuckle about the time we were fishing up in the Coromandel and you slipped on the boat and ended up on the deck looking like a turtle trying to turn itself over 😂 Every time I see a turtle, I’m reminded of that day 🤗 Thank you for the awesome memories through my life, especially when you lived in Ruapehu Street and we got to hang out with you all and watch you work on the car and to see you race. Sending my love to You, Aunty Janice, Richelle, Lisa, Mandy and their families ❤️

I have great memories and one in particular was going with you and Sandy on a Morris Club run and nearly buying a Morris 1000. So close. And me navigating on the way home and we went ended up the wop, much to your disgust, hahaha. But we did get home eventually. Fly high Kev, lots of love Alli

Well we shared the same Birthday which is pretty special. I will always remember you for being so welcoming. Your door was always open for people to visit. Lionel will very happy to see you again. Your strength was amazing. Now you are at peace and can rest easy. A pleasure to have known you and your lovely family. Luv Adrienne. 🙏😍

We have many fond memories of Kev. They include his practical jokes, chats in the shed, trying to brand Jackies butt during a test drive in the morry 8...no battery cover caused seat springs to heat up. our boys remember you introducing them to Brown. You leave behind a legacy of a loving family that you inspired to great things. You will be missed by so many. You have completed your final lap, crossed the finish line and taken the checkered flag. Love from Gavin, Jackie, Jason, Matt and Mikey

In life, you are so previleged if you are able to have a few of those "Special people' in your life You were that Uncle Kevin, alround lovely guy, love of life and family, A legend. So many fond memories Will miss you. Forever loved See you on the other side

with sadness I had to say goodbye my brother you were the best will miss our chats love you forever Keb see you on the other sidr 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

Dearest Kev, You were an amazing husband, father, grandfather and friend to everyone who was privileged enough to have known you. Your determination to fight your health battle for all these years to protect Sandy, the girls and their families was nothing short of remarkable. I was very blessed to have you in my life for over 30 years, and the memories of many race tracks and special times together will always remain. It is with such a heavy heart that the checkered flag for 12H has dropped for the last time with us all. Fly that flag proudly with all you are reunited with in heaven. Rest in peace Kev, free from pain. All our love

Well mate, I will forever miss the great catchups we had reminiscing over things we have done over the years. For 1 example welding 2 saloon chassises at the sametime and setting fire to the wiring in the garage because a bolt was used for a fuse. You will always be remembered racing the LIP Vauxhall at Forest Lake in the early days and then taking on the V'8s with much smaller cars and still be competitive. So s orry Jean & I can't be there today to see you off to the raceway in the sky as we are still over in Australia.I will sorely miss you. RIP Belky

Uncle Kevin you were always my favourite uncle, Thankyou for always being there for me, you and aunty were like second grandparents to Jerome growing up. I will treasure all my memories which are to many to list. Growing up at forest lake stock car track with you, dad and uncle David they were the best days, and the death rides you use to take me on in the morrie 8. I would be shitting my pants while yr laughing yr ass of at me. You were an inspiration And a legend and will be sadly missed but never forgotten. You are with nana and yr brothers now. R.I.P my beautiful uncle and I will see you when I get there. You have left behind so many broken hearts, but yr pain free now which makes it ok. So glad we got to say gdbye and Jerome’s happy you got to meet his son. Will treasure those photos forever you touched so many hearts cos you were such a gentle, caring patient soul with a great sense of humour, always had gd laughs❤️❤️😘😘🥰🥰

To kevin(Uncle mac) it was an honor meeting you I enjoyed going fishing with you Brendan and your next door neighbour when we went to Coromandel I remembered when we stop at the spot and me you and your neighbour caught some fish in the morning and Brendan didn’t catch any we would catch some all day and Brendan still didn’t get any until you said to him, if you don’t get any you will have to swim back to the dock and then next minute he caught a fish. It is gonna be hard with out you here gonna miss you so much. God must have wanted you with him by his side cause you are truly an angel here thank you for being a true inspiration for Me and Brendan.
