We will miss Kelvin, but he left us the best memories of camping, golfing and fantastic dinners. He was one to never forget your birthday and had great sense of humor. He had a very big heart and loved you all so much. We love you all.

My old friend,the years that we spent together were years of sunshine,laughter and good times.I cherish those times.
You were Captian of your ship and you sailed through life with much courage and integrity .You were an inspiration to all those who sailed along with you.
Your life was a success.
In the end you had family,friends and old mates whom all loved and looked up to you.
I will never forget Kelvin.
