Kevin Larry Person

Kevin attended schools in the Olathe School District; Fairview Elementary, Santa Fe Trail Jr. High, and he graduated from Olathe (North) High School in 1976. Kevin then joined the United States Air Force and served for five years before receiving his Honorable Discharge. Upon returning home to Olathe, Kevin attended Johnson County Community College (JCCC) while majoring in Computer Science and Engineering. He was also an employee working as an Environmental Specialist for the college for many years during that time.

Handling many tasks were very easy for Kevin as he was an excellent multitasker. Afterward, he was hired by King Radio (Bendix/King) where he worked in the computer center. Kevin was a man with many faces and many voices to go with it. A heart as pure as gold with not even a single or mean bone in his body. Kevin did not know a stranger and had many friends. He hated confrontations and loved peace. He just wanted everyone to get along. He had a great love for animals, classic cars, and music as well as playing the keyboard from time to time. His greatest joy was being an usher at Nexus Church. He had just celebrated his 65th birthday on May 6th. Kevin had made peace with his Maker and his heart is no longer needing surgery but has been made whole again! We will all miss him.

Kevin was preceded in death by his beloved parents Joseph Clifford Person, Sr. and Mary Catherine (Berry) Person; His loving wife Jeannie Person; and Brother George Fortner. He is survived by his precious daughter Renee Brown and grandchildren Marcus Brown and Kenniyra Rowden. His brothers James Fortner, Jr. (Sue-Deceased); Joseph Person, Jr. (Frances); Daniel Person, Sr.; Donald Person (Terri); and Dana Person (Gladis). He is also survived by his sisters Delphine Williams (James-Deceased); Brenda Person, Angela Person, and Janine Person. He also leaves to grieve his long-time companion Terri Dones and family. Kevin was a great uncle to a large host of nephews and nieces, cousins and friends. God Bless~The Person Family.
