Background
Kevin’s children are asking for donations to help with the cost of cremation and death proceedings. Due to Kevin's sudden and untimely death, costs have been incurred not covered by life insurance policy. It was Kevin's request that he be cremated, and his ashes spread in Ireland. His children would like an opportunity to be together and make possible an intimate ashes spreading ceremony in Ireland spring 2026.
Your donation will go directly to covering:
1) costs of cremation
2) ashes repatriation
3) costs of death proceedings (I.e. transport of personal items from South Carolina to Michigan, etc.)
If you are a sibling or close family member who wishes to participate in this intimate ceremony, please get in contact. Contribute
