A sad sad day not made any easier because of covid. I have many memories of Kevin from our early days in Bermuda. I always remember a genial personality, a love of good music and of course football. All in all a tragic reminder that life is fickle and we have to make the best of it.
God speed my friend.

Nothing can take away the memories. The tours, banter, fun and laughter, the company of a great friend and stories that will be told many times over. You will be sorely missed by all but forever in our hearts. Farewell Kevlar, until we meet again.

Rest in peace Peter Pan, never wanting to grow old you always looked eternally young; it will be incredibly difficult coming to terms with not seeing your handsome face and hearing your voice and laughter. Great memories. I will be forever grateful that I was able to be by your side until the end, you fought hard. Taken far too soon - loved by so many, until we meet again Kevin x

What can I say, what a great friend we had so many good times together. I met Keven in the late seventies I think we were dating the same girl at the time then Kevin left to travel to Australia and back to Britain. When Kevin came back to Bermuda I really got to hang out with him and we had so many good times and laughs of course it was Fridays. Unfortunately I got to witness him getting sick such a big surprise he always look younger than the rest of us and hardly had any grey hairs so it was incredible hard to watching him deteriorate I think I cried many times after leaving him in the hospice. So you go my friend I am glad your at peace now but you will most definitely be missed by all hopefully we will meet again in the spirit world. Love from a good friend.

Thank you for stopping to chat with me on Horseshoe Bay when I first arrived in Bermuda and for becoming my best mate. All those fun times and holidays will never be forgotten and I shall miss you dearly as life goes on.

Dear Kevin May you Rest In Peace - I only really got to know you when we became neighbours at Riddells Bay - we would banter with each other - you had such a great sense of humour and wit - I’m so glad I got to meet and know you - xx

God bless Kevin. You were an awesome neighbour at Smithfield, your cheeky smile and your banter was legendary, especially when you would lean on your balcony and eavesdrop on girly conversations! RIP.

RIP my dear friend Kevin. I feel extremely lucky to have shared all of those memorable times in Bermuda and Killington with such an amazing mate, and am going to miss that infectious laugh. I know you and Marcel will be looking down on us during our annual golf outing in Killington, and we’ll be thinking you. Cheers and RIP.
