We want to offer our deepest sympathies to his family. Ride free in the forever chapter Cool, you'll always be with us. Road Tramps”.



His esteem in the motorcycle world was reflected by the number of bikers who turned up to accompany Cool on his last ride. Kevin was popular and loved by so many in all walks of life.
“A big turn-out for the legend that was Cool. Thanks to all the clubs and individual bikers that supported us laying our Prez Cool 1% to rest. Greatly appreciated,” was a message posted on the Road Tramps Facebook page.

He is very deeply regretted by his loving wife Brìd, sons Kevin and Conal, daughter Ciara, grandchildren Kevin, Leah and Ava, mother Nora, brothers, sisters, brothers-in-law, sisters-in-law, nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends.

The condolences page on rip.ie has been overflowing with tributes.
“Kevin was a gentleman and a credit to his trade,” said one.

Kevin was described as a “kind and thoughtful neighbour” while another said, “He was always in good form and full of fun; made time for everyone. He will never be forgotten and the lovely fun memories will live on.”

Afterwards he was laid to rest in Mount St Oliver Cemetery.

May he rest in Peace.
