Known by all who knew and loved him as “Kegan”, he will forever be remembered as an ornery guy that had a wonderful sense of humor and was quite the prankster. He loved kids and kids loved him. Kegan enjoyed working on his car and was a self taught mechanic. He loved hanging out with his friends and especially his sister. He was the “IT” guy for both his grandmothers, always there for them when they needed help with anything technical. He was an incredible young man that will be sadly missed by all who knew and loved him and each life that he touched in his own special way.
