I am sorry to hear of Kevin's passing. Kevin & I grew up in Wroxeter went to Howick Central & FE Madill together. I will always remember his wonderful sense of humor & contagious laugh. He may have even been my first kiss lol, either him or Ronny Riley (can't remember). I had not seen Kevin for several years, but one day he was passing thru Lucknow and stopped in to the Co-Op to say hello and it was really good to see him again. I believe he was at the last Wroxeter Christmas Silent Auction too. He hadn't changed ... you always know Kevin was in the room. My sincerest of condolences to out to everyone in his family and his circle of friends. He will be missed.

I first met Kevin when I was working for Ducks Unlimited. He came on board as a volunteer to help with the Belleville committee at that time, and I quickly found out that he had held the same type of job with the National Wild Turkey Federation, when they were still around in Canada.
It was great to connect with someone that understood that work life and to get to know Kevin and hear his stories. Sitting down to chat with him, his way of not taking things too seriously, and joking around, was always welcome after my long drives and late meetings. At times, welcoming me into his home to have a drink and talk shop.
Thanks Kevin for the listening ear during those times, it was truly appreciated and will be remembered. My condolences to his family and large network of friends.

Marg, Emily, Connor and the Townsend Family - we send our condolences to you with the passing of Kevin. We have great memories of a good neighbour and friend. His wit and one liners would brighten everyone's day. He even taught me my first swear word which cost me a nickel - Mom and I laughed about just the other day. Blaine and I both have shared a friendship with Towner over the years, and have many good memories. Our thoughts are with you all.

Marg, Emily, Connor and all of your family, my deepest sympathies for your loss. He could hold a room captive with his outgoing personality, jokes and some of the funniest stories I've ever heard. I remember many evenings in your back yard in Wroxeter and the chats we had when we'd run into each other in Belleville. Towner will be greatly missed! Big hugs....Hold tight to your memories of a uniquely special man.

Kevin was the friend you wanted to share with the world, carefully! His attitude, humor, and smile kept us all in stitches!!! Guaranteed fun, and never afraid to do what was right. I loved Kevin as my brother, and we certainly shot out a few street lights together. Many a turkey has feared our presence, and I will miss him sorely. For Emily and Conner, be proud of who your Dad was, as so many of us were proud of our association with Towner.
Margie, I am heart-broken for you and the kids, and I thank you for sharing him with me. You are my Canadian family and I am grateful for you.
God bless you, Brother. Until we sit at the next tree waiting on the next gobbler.
