As a young child, he and his family moved to Fort Dodge where he first attended elementary school. He then transferred to Manson Northwest Webster where he graduated in 2008. Following graduation, Kevin worked at Racing Unlimited for several years and most recently was self-employed as both a mechanic and carpenter. In his early teen years Kevin developed a love for dirt bikes. He enjoyed racing for many years as #23 and in recent years enjoyed riding both dirt bikes and motorcycles with his friends. He was known to those close to him as K-ster, a nickname given to him by his dad at a young age. Kevin was a "gear head" and had a passion for working on bikes. He had a smile that could light up a room and was a kind and honest person who put others before himself. Kevin will be greatly missed by all who knew him. Memorials may be left to the discretion of the family.
