“Forever Loved, Never Forgotten”

The Navy Gold Star Program is eternally grateful for the sacrifice of those Service Members who have died in service to our country. To help us to never forget, we have set up this tribute page to honor and remember the memory of those lives. If you would like to honor the memory of your Sailor, Soldier, Marine, Airman or Coast Guardsman through the Navy Gold Star website please submit your thoughts and a photo.

Kevin was a Gentle Giant. He earned the nickname Care Bear from his youth minister. Kevin could be the life of the party, but he knew when to step up and do his job. Kevin could be your best friend, but he could also be your worse enemy – he did not like when others were being picked on for anything out of their control.
