He is survived by a sister in Switzerland, a brother in Burma, a 20-pound orange cat named Bronson, and a host of grieving friends for whom he is already serving as samurai guardian angel.

Aloha Kevin ... it was a pleasure working with you in the original Broadway production of PACIFIC OVERTURES and you had the most beautiful SMILE and calm, quiet bearing. You brought dignity to life and I know you are smiling from above and guiding us.
Mahalo, Diane

My dear friend Khin-Kyaw...
My professional life began with "Pacific Overtures," and you were the first or the original cast to embrace me into the family. So many things you taught me. So very much I can never repay.
Travel with the wind at your back and the sun rising before you.

Khin-Kyaw! I miss your spirit. You introduced me to Iaido, and entertained many in New York with your solo performances. I can still see you in my mind's eye, in a white hot spotlight, performing Iaido katas to a thrilled audience off Broadway in 1979. Thank you, alas, belatedly.
