Our heartfelt condolences to you all on this day. Although we never got to meet in person, with a name like Kevin you must have been a great bloke. Our support and aroha goes out to you all. From the Naki whanau living in Canterbury.

I was always amazed at Kevin's skill as a fencer, mostly working alone as he preferred it. He was an easy man to talk to and his wisdom was worth listening to. I am sure that the last few years have been incredibly hard for Kevin and his family. My sincere condolences go out to Carole and the family. Kevin was a good man, and one who I had the privilege and good fortune to know.

Rest easy now Kevin, thanks for helping me move my stuff when flatting with Bronwyn and visiting your home over the years and Your sense of humour [spinning our brown dining room chairs] before putting them onto your blue truck. I hope you feel little bit better now. My sincere condolences to Carol, Bronwyn and family xxx

Sorry to hear of Kevin's demise...another tie in your family broken. Thinking of you all, his own family and brothers Bruce and David. I have lots of memories from the times our two families grew up together on Puniho Rd. They were good times. Margaret
