Bob & Sandy Magnuson Our deepest condolences to Mabel and the girls. Kevin was a good friend, and we enjoyed many good laughs both at work and beyond. He was our “beancounter” in Yukon Transportation Maintenance and he took the job seriously. He was a professional and caring individual. We shared many good times with him and his warm beer and the rest of us with the cold……..we’ll miss him. Sorry for your loss.

Sherri Vandenberg To Kevin’s family, you have my deepest condolences. I worked with Kevin on a Finance project for MoFR. He later became my Manager in Prince George when he took a temporary position. We use to enjoy his laughter and stories about “his girls”….daughters were the apple of his eyes. Always a good morning, always a smile and there wasn’t anything in his opinion that couldn’t be fixed….you will be forever missed, but never forgotten

Never forgotten, always in our hearts!!
