Kevin worked in construction alongside his father and brothers and even started his own construction company before deciding that he wanted to go back to school to become a teacher. He graduated from Weber State with a Bachelor of Science degree, a teaching certificate and a great sense of accomplishment. He devotedly taught the children of West Bountiful Elementary for 15 years.
In 1975, Kevin married Jan Warnock and together they had four beautiful and energetic boys: Aaron, Ford, Gabriel, and Clark. Though they did not always live near him, he followed their lives, loved them deeply and made sure others knew about their adventures. He was proud to be their dad.
In 1991, Kevin married Kay Shelton in the Salt Lake Temple and they lived their life together in Sunset, Utah, where they raised her daughter, Amber Terry (Jensen). When Kevin met Kay they found that they both loved dancing and spending time at the temple. They supported each other through their schooling, their teaching careers, their church callings, and all the ups and downs of life. They together discovered their love for dogs and have had constant canine companionship for almost 24 years. Later in life, they loved sharing the role of grandparents to their eight grandchildren, Edsel, Moses, Phineas, John Paul, Kiersten, Whitney, Emily and Katie.
Kevin was a gentle giant, a passionate Beatles fan, and a lover of spending time outdoors with his family. Skiing, canoeing, hunting and sailing on Bear Lake were all activities that brought him great joy. Along with his immediate family he will be missed by his sisters, Jan (Dan) Christensen and Maggie (Rett) Thorpe, and his brothers, Renny (Vicki), Ethan (Julie) and Jacob (Katrina), for his fun-loving spirit, his easy-going nature, and his warm smile. There to greet him on the other side would have been his parents and infant sister Mary Edwina who died at birth.
