Kevin Chandler Obituary

KEVIN B. CHANDLER It is with great sadness that the family and friends of Kevin B. Chandler, beloved son, brother, and friend, announces his passing on Saturday, June 26th, 2010. He was one day way from his 52nd birthday. Kevin was born June 27th, 1958, in Lynwood, California. However, he grew up and lived his entire life in Riverside. His passion in life was working with his hands as can be seen by all that he did: building sandrails from the frame up, rebuilding VW motors, wood working (cabinets/stairways/mantels.), and any and all things to do on a car or in a home. Kevin is survived by his parents, L.B. and Brigid I. Chandler of Riverside; his sister, Theresa Hampton; brother, Vern Chandler, and numerous family members and friends. Viewing will be held Thursday evening, July 1st, between 4-7pm at Sierra Memorial Chapel Mortuary, 4933 La Sierra Ave., Riverside, CA. Ph. (951) 687-0551, followed by a morning service, July 2nd, 11am at the same location, in the Chapel. The service will be immediately followed by Graveside Service at Olivewood Memorial Park, 3300 Central Avenue, Riverside, California.
