I met Kevin around 2014 when he took a chance on me and gave me my first job in eDiscovery in the Litigation Support department at Clyde & Co. I will always be forever grateful to Kevin for giving me another career relatively late in life. I loved working with Kevin, I learnt so much from him and it was inevitable that we became friends. Kevin was eclectic, eccentric in the best of ways and possessed the most incisive wit. I will always remember a conversation which we had. I was dating a lot at the time and not finding it easy going. I complained that I wish I could find someone normal. He turned to me and said "...and who are you trying to kid!". He called me on it but he also saw me! The world is a much poorer place without him. MY heart felt condolences go out to his family and friends.

I 100% agreed with everyone that Kevin has a fantastic sense of humour, great neighbour and he would be missed. My condolences to all the families and friends Kevin left behind.

I knew Kevin for many years and initially worked in the same company with him before he went on to do bigger and better things because he was so capable and his skills were very much in demand. He didn't, as others have said, suffer fools gladly but he had a wicked sense of humour, a good heart and if you were his friend he'd support you to the end. I'm happy to think that he was my friend and I have been on the receiving end of his support. He is and will be missed so much. Even though I can't get to the funeral, my thoughts,love and good wishes to everyone he's left behind.

I was so sorry to hear this news. I didn't know Kevin well, but I always very much enjoyed his company. He was a man who didn't suffer fools, had a delightfully wicked sense of humour and knew how to prioritise the important things in life (enjoying the natural world, biking in the the canary islands and the importance of meaningful relationships with friends and family). My deepest sympathies to those loved ones he has left behind and I shall raise a glass to him on the evening of his funeral.

So many fabulous memories of Kevin. He made me laugh so much. Our business meetings were such that we had to force ourselves to actually focus on the work and not just have a good old gossip. He will be missed. So sorry to his family and friends for their loss.

I knew Kevin as an industry colleague, and played a small part in getting him appointed in his role at Clyde & Co. He was intelligent, witty and kind heated. Hw will be missed by us all.
