Farewell Kevin (R4V4G3D_SKU11S) :*-(

[silver1]

Kevin was very much still an active member of this board so I thought I would share this terribly sad news.

From Kevin's wife Sarah:

"It is with a broken heart and tears streaming down my face, that I sadly share this. Kevin Keast passed away peacefully in his sleep on Sunday night. I'm still in shock, numb, sad and angry but wanted to share this with you all so that Kevin and I as well as our beautiful girls could feel your love in this terrible time. Love you forever Kevin."

I knew Kevin for nearly 20 years and I'm in shock and sadness at hearing this. My heart goes out to Sarah and their beautiful children. Words can't express how sad I feel at hearing this news.

woah

I never met him in person but he was always a part of my digital life on this board and I will miss him

my condolences to the family and to tribers here who are feeling the loss

 

[Special K]

Thoughts and prayers to the family. Sad news.

THE biggest Blue Jays fan probably known to man.
And the ONLY Eagles fan that i personally have known.
I've known the family for probably 15 years and was shocked to read Sarah's message this morning.
I do not have words for this. So much sadness. I'm so sorry.
RIP Kevin. We've lost one of the good ones

I'm at a loss for words and totally floored by the news. Farewell Kevin, love and strength for all his friends and family.

I can't really process this.

I ran into him about 1 1/2 years back at Nest. I hadn't seen him for a while and it was great to catch up.

He was a staple on here for so long too... formally known as 'Basic'.

RIP Kevin.

Utterly heartbroken.

Metal/punk and all of their permutations and combinations will never sound the same...

Love you, Kevin. Love you so god damn much.

 

[Klubmasta Will]

I don't even know what to say.

Kevin/Kevo/Basic/Ravegod Skills/Ravaged Skulls has been one of the all time greatest members of this community, and the Hullaboard community before that. I think it's been at least 2 years since I last saw Kevin, but every time I saw him it was like old times, and I always enjoyed reminiscing with him about oldschool rave days, when he used to wear a white shirt and tie to parties.

Sarah - I am so sorry for your loss. I cannot imagine what you are going through. You and your family are in all of our thoughts.

To the Children in case they read this - Your Dad was one of the great ones. One of the coolest, nicest, most genuine guys I've ever met. He will be missed by so many.

My most heartfelt condolences.

utterly shocked.

Sad sad news. Always seems like the nicest ones get taken away too soon, leaving a huge void in their abscence. Just another reminder to live your life to the fullest extent, love your friends and family and enjoy each day. RIP

Actually I think I met him now. You are jogging my memory. Its crazy how I know some tribers way better from their avatar/name than from times i shook their hands in a dark club....

Cant remember where but pretty sure it was some techno event about 2-3 years ago....

 

[kat]

This doesn't seem real. I don't want to believe it.

I was just thinking about him, wondering what kid's birthday party I would get to see him at next.

I think I recognized him via hulla as basic before tribe. I don't know when I actually met him, he was someone that everyone seemed to know.

I never got to know him as well as others, but I always felt so lucky to be in his circle of friends. I always thought there would be more time.

Wow, I haven't posted on tribe in years. What a incomprehensible loss.

 

[stryker]

This is so sad.

RIP Kevin.

In all my years on this board, I didn't meet a single person who had anything but the best things to say about Kevin. A total stand up guy.

Sarah- my deepest condolences to you and the family

 

[Boss Hog]

What in the fuck???

I didn't really know him except through some of you, but that's just awful. I'm sorry for you guys and for his family. RIP R4V4G3D_SKU11S / Kevin.

 

[KickIT]

Wait.. Kevin = Basic? sarah = Mcbee? Please say I've got it wrong.

 

[Boss Hog]

No, thats' right.
