Kevin Brent Masters                           February 20, 1955 – September 4, 2024

Kevin Brent Masters, 69, of Milan, NH, passed away unexpectedly on September 4, 2024. Born on February 20, 1955, in Berlin, NH, Kevin was the son of Joyce (Donovan) Piper and Gordon A. Masters. Growing up on Stearns Brook Farm in Milan, Kevin developed a strong work ethic while picking potatoes and tending cattle. He later worked at Doucette’s Farm and delivered milk in Berlin and Milan. He graduated from Berlin High School in 1973. After graduation, Kevin served four years in the Air Force with stations in New Jersey, New York, and brief tours in Germany. Back in Milan, he worked with Howard Doucette in construction and at White Mountain Lumber until retirement. After retiring, he took a memorable cross-country motorcycle tour on his Harley, exploring many states and national parks.

 Kevin and his twin brother Keith were often mistaken for each other due to their identical appearance. Despite their similar looks, they were remarkably different in personality. But one thing was certain—they were always there for each other. Whether one needed something or just a helping hand, the other was there without hesitation. Their bond was unbreakable, even if their bickering was relentless, and their mutual support was a cornerstone of their lives.

 Kevin was an incredible friend and was always ready to lend a helping hand and had several passions in addition to riding his Harley: tinkering on projects, hunting, and spending time at his camp, Camp Have-A-Blast, at Maidstone Lake in Vermont. Kevin was also a proud life member of the Road King’s Motorcycle Club. He formed lasting friendships through the club, where his passion for Harley-Davidson motorcycles and the camaraderie of fellow bikers became central to his life, making the club like a second family.

 Kevin is survived by his identical twin brother, Keith Masters, and Keith’s wife, Diane (Arsenault) Masters. Their children include Kevin’s niece, Erica (Masters) Buteau, and her husband, Rick Buteau, as well as Kevin’s nephew, Brian Masters, and his wife, Amanda Masters. Kevin is also survived by his loving brother, Kurt Masters and by several nieces, nephews and cousins. He was predeceased by his parents, and also a brother, Gary Masters.

Services: A celebration of Kevin’s life will take place on September 13th at The Bryant Funeral Home, 180 Hillside Ave., Berlin. Calling hours will be from 10 to 12 with the service to follow immediately after. The final scattering of Kevin's ashes will be held privately at a later date. In lieu of flowers: The family asks that you make a donation in Kevin’s name to the American Diabetes Association (ADA). Online guestbook at www.bryantfuneralhome.net.
