Oh I am so sorry to hear of your loss, I only knew Kevin from doing our chimney and I have to say he was the most amazing person. One time when I moved back into my house, I was terribly stressed out the gutters, after he cleaned my chimney he then went onto the roof and cleared my gutters, no charge. As my Father would tell me a true Gentleman, so sad to hear of his passing.

Diane & family
I was most saddened to learn of Kevin's passing. Kevin & I flatted together in our early years as young men. When he was around there was never a dull moment. He was a colourful character. We had some good times which I won't forget.
Please accept our condolences. Our thoughts are with you.

So saddened to hear of the tragic passing of Kevin. He was such a gentleman, a great laugh and wisdom. He always spent time talking while cleaning our chimney. He and my late husband Bob will be chatting away in the big white clouds.
May his family have strength to see you through the up and coming days ahead.
God bless you all
Regards Paulette Bale.

Kevin was much more than "a good tradesman". He listened, sympathised, helped in ways beyond his 'official' duties, always offered the best solution at the right time, warned in advance of coming issues. He will be greatly missed by all his customers. Our sympathies to all his family.

To the family of Kevin, it was with much sadness when I was told of Kevins passing. We grew up together at Oxford Crescent School, and were together at the 20th Wellington Boys Bridge which I still have photos off, everytime we ran into each other there was alway a chat of whats up with our familys. RIP Kevin.

My condolences to the family on the sudden loss of Kevin. Such a friendly man who loved a great chat especially about his family. Always welcomed in our home. I cant believe that last week after servicing our wood burner we sat outside and chatted over a cup of coffee about grandchildren and shared photos. Kia kaha

We were very upset ...like many people to
learn of Kevin's passing. For us Kevin's arrival to clean out our
fireplace was so much more than
the arrival of a tradesman. We
looked forward to seeing him and
always had a good yarn over a
cuppa. It was a special event. He was such a wonderful man and always very generous with his time and kind advise . We will miss him terribly.
Last saw him at Pak n save and we chatted for 20 minutes. Amazing the number of people that came up to say hallo . He touched many lives
