    I've personally known Kevin a numbers of years both as a coworker at various nuclear plants during outages and as a personal friend. He will be missed by me as well as quite a number of people, he made an impact to everyone he ever met. What a great man and friend. I offer my condolences to the McBurnie family.

    Lolo and Ryan, Words cannot adequately describe my sorrow upon hearing of Kevin's passing. From the first time I met Kevin he made me feel as though I had known him my entire life. I don't know that I have met a more personable and funny man. Nor a bigger Steeler fan! My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

    LoLo - I am so very sorry for your loss. Kevin was a wonderful man, always ready to help, always stopping by to say hello whenever he was in town and always with a smile on his face. May the Lord comfort you during this difficult time and know that you are being thought of. Keeping y'all in my thoughts and prayers......... Jenny McCormick

    I am sorry to hear about Kevin. He and I go way back to my days as a Davis-Besse employee and many years with AREVA. I worked with Kevin this spring during the last DB outage. He was a great guy, good leader and a respected friend.

  • December 11, 2019

    The greatest man I ever met and best friend that I ever had. Though we were separated by miles the friendship endured. I will miss you dear friend, your wit, your positive attitude, love of your family, and especially your great stories, the ones that always ended in "That's my story, and I am sticking to it." Kevin, This is my story, and I am sticking to it!

    Kevin, When we texted on Friday evening you told me you were "doing much better", I wish that were the case. Your personality was larger than life. I wish I got to spend more time with you, yet I feel like I've known you forever. Thank you for your kindness to my son and family, thank you for bringing my checker home a few weeks ago, thank you for talking me into just a few more odd jobs around the house, and thank you for being genuinely you. You are a gem that is gone too soon. Love Dave, Connie, Charley and your man Donnie
