Kevin William Dorsey, 55, of Boyds, MD, passed away in his home on September 6, 2022.

He was the loving husband of Dawn Marie Dorsey for 34 years.

Born on February 28, 1967 in Maryland, Kevin was the son of Larry Dorsey and the late JoAnn (Magaha) Dorsey.



Kevin was many things to those who knew him. To some, he was a coach. To others, he was a U.S. Army Veteran, a business owner, a jokester, a hunter. The list could go on infinitely. But, to all that had the pleasure of meeting him, he was a good friend, a mentor and a role model. He was truly an altruistic man. In health and in sickness he never wavered in his commitment to family, friends and community. He always preached hard work and perseverance, and during his 8 year battle with ALS he showed everyone exactly what it meant to work hard, and to be a fighter. He was a one-of-a-kind, inspirational, honest, hard-working, fun-loving man who will be missed by all; the type of person who made everyone and everything around him better.



Surviving besides his wife are his children; Samantha Jo Wrathall, husband, Michael, Cody William Dorsey, wife, Lauren, Jessica Anne Dorsey, boyfriend, Nick Katsikas, two sisters; Karri Morningstar, husband, Patrick, and Susan Frances, husband, David, two brothers; Keith Dorsey, wife, Krista and Kris Dorsey, wife Karen, two grandchildren; Annabelle Gail Wrathall and Georgios William Katsikas and seven nieces and nephews, Kyle Morningstar, Kaysie Steele, Lexi Dorsey, Sydney Francis, Katelyn, Kristina and Kolton Dorsey.The Dorsey Family, including Kevin, would like to thank the dozens if not the hundreds of family, friends and the entire town of Poolesville, that have given our family their love and support over the last 8 years.
