Hi, I boated with Kevco for several years. Hope you are sitting down, if new new Kev like I did this will hit hard. He went through a rough divorce and lost custody of his daughter all the while being diagnosed with bi-polar and having to take some pretty heavy meds. The meds affected him in a bad way and he lost a lot of his physical strength. He was with family in california, went for a walk and never returned. He hung himself in the backyard. Sorry for the shocker, he loved life so much.....There is talk of a memorial on the ark. I will let you know if I hear...
