Kevin WAGONER Obituary

WAGONER, Kevin Joseph "Kaze" and Mya Darlene

Age 25 and age 3, Centerville (former residents of Akron, OH), died on Friday, April 22, 2022, as a result of a car

accident.

Kevin was a light in this world – kind, patient and charismatic, and a friend to all he met. He was a graduate of Chaminade Julienne Catholic High School in 2015, where he was an active participant in the performing arts department. He had a

passion for cats, music, magic, seafood and Arnold Palmer's. He was currently working for Atomic Tech in Dayton, after a recent move from Akron where he worked with his Applebee's family.

Mya was a beautiful fearless soul with a love for singing, dancing and drawing and adored all animals, especially

butterflies and dinosaurs. Like her father, she made friends with all she met. With her parents, she was sustained in

special care by grandparents Leah and Scott Kimmel and

Uncle KC. She especially adored her "Cousins!", whom she loved so much.

Together, Kevin, Sydney (wife and mother) and Mya built their lives around each other, cherishing the moments that they

created as a family. All three were rays of sunshine as they

enjoyed their self-made adventures, spurred by their love of traveling and being outdoors. Kevin and Sydney were inseparable as they were also co-workers for several years. The

couple was married January 12, 2019. Sydney holds dear the life that they built together.

Kevin and Mya are preceded in death by nephew and cousin, Vincent Edward Wagoner and grandparents and great-grandparents, Jack Wagoner and Margaret Wagoner. They are survived by beloved wife and mother Sydney Ellen

Wagoner; parents and grandparents: Steve and Tina

Wagoner; parents-in-law and grandparents: Scott and Leah Kimmel and Ken Cook; siblings and uncles/aunts: K.C. Cook; Jessica (Nick) Hoffman, Lauren (Rob) Fievisohn, Patrick (Diane) Wagoner, Shaye Metzger, and Colleen Wagoner; grandparents and great-grandparents: Bob and Pat Metzger and

Ronald Goffee; nephews/nieces and cousins: Danny, Claire and JJ Wagoner and Evelyn and Tim Fievisohn; uncles and aunts: Lori (Jason) Galloway, Bruce Wagoner, Greg Metzger, Tracey Metzger, Julia (Joe) Knezetic; Meg McNeely-Domingo; Mark (dec.) (Mary) Wagoner; Jack (Kathy) Wagoner; Cate Wagoner; Celeste (Mark) Williams . . . and Kevin's Wagoner Family

cousins.

A funeral Mass will be held at Noon, Saturday, April 30, 2022, at St. Albert the Great Church, 3033 Far Hills Ave., Kettering OH, with Fr. Chris Worland presiding and Fr. Bob Jones, S.M. The family will greet friends at St. Albert prior to the service starting at 11 a.m.

The family expresses their love and appreciation for the outpouring of love and support from extended family, friends, the Chaminade Julienne and St. Albert communities. For those who wish to do so, contributions may be made to Chaminade Julienne or the Boonshoft Zoo in their memories.

I had met Kevin a couple of times, as he came to fix one of my appliances. The last time I saw him, I remarked how lucky his wife and daughter were to have such a caring and kind husband and father. Kevin was a light in this world, no doubt about it. A real gentle soul. I am humbled and honored to have met him. My prayers will continue for Kevin's and Mya's family. May God's angels watch over you and comfort you.

Kevin and I attended CJ together. He was walking sunshine! Even if he wasn´t having the best day, he would always great you with a smile and ask you how you were doing. He would teach me magic tricks and card tricks during Government class and was always so patient with everyone. He was so genuine, creative and kind. We lost touch after we graduated, but I loved seeing his posts on social media about his beautiful wife and daughter. I am heartbroken to hear the news about Kevin and Mya´s passing. I will keep the family in my thoughts and all of my prayers.
