Kevin Dobbins "KD", 54, died unexpectedly of a heart attack Monday, May 30, 2022 at his home.
Kevin was a self made man that was a jack of all trades and always preferred to be his own boss. He was a small business owner most of his life. As an adult he had a passion for many things such as riding his Harley, fishing, camping, traveling, listening to the blues, sports, watching westerns and other old shows. Most importantly Kevin enjoyed any reason to gather so he could be in front of a grill BBQing, blasting music and entertaining for his family and friends.
Kevin was known for his larger than life personality and the world will not be the same without him. One thing that will always be true is that Kevin loved and was loved. All who were in his life will miss him dearly.
Kevin is preceded in death by his father, Larry Dobbins and his son Kevin Dobbins, Jr.
Kevin is survived by many people. He leaves behind his mother, Sonia Dobbins; siblings, Larry Dobbins and Jada Nicole; daughters, Jassimen Dobbins, Sariah Dobbins; sons, Joseph Dobbins, Desmond Dobbins, Chanse Lekin, Skylar Dobbins, Marquis Slater and Malik Hodges. He also leaves behind grandchildren, Kevin Dobbins, III, My Taurean Dobbins, Jae'vion Dobbins, Rodney Daniels Jr., Aunor Daniels, Da'Cion Slather, Jaiden Dobbins, Tina Dobbins, Jurnee Dobbins, Kae'Lani Stephen, Michael Harper, Joseph Harper along with a whole host of other close family and friends that will continue to love him and carry his memory.
