Kevin had a passion for teaching. As a technology education teacher for the Forest Hills School District for over 25 years, he sought to uphold the Ranger motto: “Excellence is the Tradition.” He was extremely talented and loved working with his hands. He was happiest in the company of family, friends, and his dogs; and enjoyed traveling, hiking, biking, and attending Pitt Panther football games.
