Dear uncle Shags, you had a warm heart with cold beers, and recognisable, contagious laughter that carried far.
You've left a void that is sorely missed.

Our deepest sympathy to you Gloria and Kevin’s extended family.
He will be sadly missed with his infectious smile and bubbly personality.
Although Kevin was some years older than me when I arrived at the CTO in 1967, we developed a strong connection during my time as a telegraphist.
We even shared a Lotto syndicate for many years and managed to to get 5 numbers which paid a paltry $300.
I can still hear his voice selling raffle tickets every week for our end of year API Picnic.
Kevin was very popular and will be missed by all.
Condolences from Joe and Trish (chicken woman) Posterino 😭💕
Our sincere sympathy to you Gloria, and to Dudley’s family.
We have fond memories of the early days, sharing houses in Hawthorn and later in Herbert St, Albert Park.
We lost contact when I left the public service and went into business, but was delighted to reconnect through your friendship with Hildegard and Werner.
Kevin was a great friend who spent time at our farm in Chiltern and generally having a great time.
He, and his infectious laugh, will be missed by so many!.
Take care, love from Pam, George and Hildegard.
I first met Kevin when he came into the CTO SFTER qualifying as a TELEGRAPHIST. JUST ON 70 years as a close colleague and friend.

Many of us felt that Kev was bulletproof.
His passing was a great shock to me, having known and being friends with dear person for just on 70 years.

Love Al and Lorraine Moore.
Kev and I have been close friends for many years, and as Allan Moore said in his tribute, it was a great shock to learn of Kev’s demise.
We had many cold beers in the post office hotel over the years and I will treasure the memories.
Kevin was a great friend and a man to be admired. My condolences to his family.
