A junior at Fairfield Warde High School, Kevin participated on the lacrosse and football programs and enjoyed being a part of a team. Kevin had a beautiful smile that touched people and a big heart. He enjoyed volunteering and had recently participated in the ASP and SASO programs. When asked what he wanted to do in his life, he would reply that he wanted to do something that helped people. Kevin was an avid skier and loved camping at the family lake house in Canada. He loved the two family Labrador Retrievers, Obi and Chewy.
In addition to his parents, Kristen O'Rourke Kuczo and James P. Kuczo; his brother, William John Kuczo (14), Kevin's memory will be cherished by his maternal grandparents, Robert and Ann O'Rourke of Pawleys Island, SC; his paternal grandparents, John and Leonora Kuczo of Norwalk; his aunts and uncles,Todd and Megan Agee, Jennifer O'Rourke, Rob and Alison Laney, John and Diane Kuczo, Andrew and MariBeth Kuczo; many loving cousins; as well as the Kuczo family pet, Chewy.
