Kevin Blair Chitwood

Wish you could have been at our 40th high school reunion Kev! #ths85

Still think of my friend, his wife and Josie. It has been a while, life goes on and the best thing we can take with us everywhere are the memories to not be forgotten

Mr. Chitwood was such an amazing man. I can't believe he's been gone almost a year. Loved him so much. I still remember his laugh and his smile. Always brightened my day. Still think about him all the time. He was truly a great great man.

Kevin was a great person. Always smiling, friendly and made the World a much better place. He will be missed dearly. So very sorry for your loss. Love and prayers, Donna Stukenborg

Rest In Peace, Kevin. I was so excited whenbyou brought me into the Turners's working family. Thank you for everything that you've done to help make things simple for me and it was an honor to work by your side as well as getting to know you as a human being. Thanks. Gone too soon. - Ant'juan Avri.

Bobbie and Josie,

I still can't find the words to adequately express my overwhelming sadness for the loss of our beloved Kevin. He was always our hero and now he is a hero to all. His infectious laugh, zest for life, dry wit and sarcastic sense of humor lit up every room he walked in.

I am tremendously blessed to have known Kevin for so long-through engagement parties, wedding celebrations, first houses, baby showers, newborns, and family vacations. I will never forget our first summer vacation together at Dufuskie Island. Somehow, Kevin trained a young Josie to be on Chitwood Time, sleeping late until noon so he would never have to get up too early. While the Chitwoods slept, the rest of us went to the beach, worked-out, and had lunch while they were rolling out of bed for breakfast. Kevin loved that island as it was the only place where he could sleep until noon yet still beat the delivery of the morning newspaper which had to be shipped in by boat. He finally found a place that ran late on Chitwood Time. Over the years, he was late for dinners, parties and our other get togethers, laughingly making us adjust to his Chitwood Time.

He will be always loved, forever missed and continue to live on in our hearts forever. Sadly, this time, Chitwood time came much too early

Dearest Bobbie and Josie, My thoughts and prayers go out to you. May the good Lord surround you and Josie with His loving arms. Sincerely, Anne-Marie Brady

Bobbie and Josie - I'm so sorry for your tragic loss. I only have memories of Kevin with a smile on his face. He is smiling on you now, and will always be with you both.

Bobbi and Josie, You are in our thoughts and prayers, and we are so very sorry for your loss. With Much Love, Martine Turns and Mac Cooley

Bobbie and Josie, we are sending prayers to you every day. Love you.

Little Bobbie,
Just a note to say how sorry we are. May God be with you and Josie. Love You.

My husband and I learned of Mr. Chitwood's death from the news. We offer our deepest condolences. I did not know Mr. Chitwood, but from reading about him I would guess that, if he had been able to choose a way to die he would have chosen to do so while saving the life of his child.

Sincerely, Mrs. Jackie Fulner

Bobbi and Josie, With greatest sympathy. May you find peace and comfort at this most difficult time.

Bobbie and Josie you are in my thoughts and prayers. My heart goes out to you and am so sorry for your loss.

Bobbie and Josie you are in my thoughts and prayers. Know that Kevin will be ever watchful of you both as he was in life, so he will be in spirit. My love to you both.

Bobbie and Josie,
There are no words to describe how sorry we are for your loss. Kevin was an amazing person and he is still an amazing soul. There was never any doubt that you two were his world. He may not be here in person but I have no doubt that his soul will be with you, watching over you. The Kevin I know would want nothing more than for you guys to findpeace and happiness, and to watch Josie follow her dreams and live fully.
People say rest in peace but I think they just mean the body. Kevin's soul lives on and what an amazing soul!

Prayers for you Bobbi and Josie. Heart breaks for your loss.

His finale good deed ! Before heading home . Was being a (Hero)praying for your family.

Bobbie and Josie,

Our family (Christine Stovall's siblings and mom) are so sorry to hear of your loss. Our prayers are with you both.

Kevin you always had a smile and something humorous to say to me during our time at T.H.S. Although we rolled with different "clicks" you were always cool to me. I've never forgotten that. We'll all go home one day and it'll be the ultimate '85 reunion. You will be the keynote MC speaker without a doubt! Until that day all of us fellas will keep you in our hearts and will look after your beautiful family. Keep a light on for us Kev. We all love you brother.

I do not personally know the Chitwood family, but I did meet Kim in the Atlanta airport. We were on the same flight coming into Mobile. I got the feeling she came from a sweet and loving family . I am so sorry , and please know my prayers are with you all .

Bobbie and Josie,
Kevin was a beautiful example of a caring and loving father. My prayers are with you during this difficult time to say good bye. His legacy of love will always live in your family.

My deepest sympathies for the Chitwood family. Kevin was a special person and I have enjoyed keeping in touch through Facebook with my high school friend. It was a common joy to see pictures of Kevin's smile with his wife, daughter and family. RIP friend. #THS85

I think of you quite often!
Prayers to you and your family!

With Sympathy...My thoughts and prayers are with the Chitwood Family.

We read the story of your loved one and we are so sorry for your sorrow. May the Lord hold you in His loving arms and carry you through. We are inspired by Kevin's selflessness and sacrifice.

Even as far back as grade school at Sacred Heart, Kevin was a fun-loving, kind, and magnetic personality that brought joy and happiness to our entire class. Even after 35 years, I still cherish the memories of those early days growing up, and hope Bobbie and Josie find some comfort knowing that (as many have said), Kevin was a positive influence for all those fortunate enough to have met him.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the Chitwood family. Kevin was one of the most positive individuals I ever had the pleasure of knowing at Trinity. He will be missed.

Kevin was such an amazing guy, I'm blessed to have had him in my life. My deepest sympathies to you all at this difficult time.

Kevin will be missed by all our neighbors, Great -guy- great neighbor, Our prayers and condolences for Bobbie, Josie and extended family. We are here for all your help and support......Zak , Naz Dugla and our family

So sad to hear about this. I was lucky to be a Trinity classmate. Kevin was a real good guy. So friendly and supportive to everyone. Keeping you in my prayers.

As new neighbors Kevin & Bobbie were some of the first to welcome us to the neighborhood. Kevin was always so kind & genuine. I will truly miss our backyard chats & only wish we could have gotten to know him better. Our hearts & door are always open to you Bobbie & Josie. Sending you our love!

Bobbi and Josie,
Kevin's death was such a shock. Know that you are in our hearts and prayers.
Your neighbors,
Jeanna and Phil Danhauer

Hes definitely always been an angle... now he just has wings. Forever loved, forever missed.
Praying for you Josie and Bobbie, much love.

Kevin will truly be missed by all who knew and loved him. Even though I haven't seen Kevin in many years I will always cherish the times we had at Trinity. We had several classes together and he made each class fun and exciting. He will never be forgotten. God bless

My prayers are with you Bobbie and Josie, Kevin was a special person who touched many hearts , He will always be with you in your memories to keep you strong.

So many things we wanted to get done this year. Kevin was an inspiration and shining example of dedication, sacrifice and love for family and friends. I will always hold him up as an example of the type man I want my boys to grow up to be. Bobbie & Josie, the Heils love you lots. Peace and comfort to you and your family.

Praying for you Bobbie and Josie. So sorry for your loss.

The way Kevin loved his family and friends was so easy to see by the look on his face, his kindness, and his permanently positive attitude toward all. I'll miss you, Rock brother! You are one of the great ones!

We are so saddened and heartbroken. There are not words to adequately express our sympathy. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and all of those grieving at this time. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him.

My family is from KY traveling in Florida - we heard the news of Kevin's passing. We extend our deepest sympathies to your family even though we are complete strangers. God bless you all!

Bobbie and Josie - you have a whole community that loves you both so much. We're praying hard for you and your family. Kevin was a solid, good guy. It was especially a pleasure watching him interact with our girls on and off the courts. They all loved and trusted "Coach Chitwood". Win or lose, he just wanted them to be happy and have fun. His special soul made sure that happened. It was obvious how much he truly cared. It was also obvious how much he loved you both, and he was always so proud of you, Josie. Anyone who knew Kevin, was blessed by his presence in our lives, but you guys carry the biggest blessings from him and always will.

Kevin made an impact on all who knew him. His kind heart and generous spirit will be deeply missed. Love and prayers to Bobbie and Josie.
