Kevin Koenig Obituary

Kevin C. Koenig, 54, a lifelong resident of Reading, PA passed away on February 4, 2021 at Penn State Health St. Joseph’s Medical Center from Covid-19. Kevin was born January 7, 1967 to Juanita (McCoy) Koenig of Bellingham, WA. and the late Charles W. Koenig. He grew up in a large and extended family and remained close to them throughout his life. After the premature death of his father, Kevin and his brothers attended Girard College in Philadelphia. Girard played an integral part in his life and taught him how to love all people. He made lifelong friends and was an ardent supporter of the Girard Alumni Association. Kevin met Tammy Klinger in 1984 and they married on May 16, 1992. They stayed in love for the remainder of his life. Kevin and Tammy never had children, instead they lavished their love on many pets through the years, including Shadow, Vixen, Lexus, Moonlight and others. Kevin was always looking for a “good deal” and the two of them spent many happy days seeking them out. They enjoyed spending time with family, especially the summer barbecues, dining out or just shooting the breeze. Kevin’s favorite pastime was playing golf. He spent many days on the green with his cousin Ted. He was a member of the hole-in-one club, and any day playing golf was a good day for Kevin. Kevin prided himself on being the man who would be first to offer a helping hand. He gave his all to show his love through his deeds, large and small. Kevin donated much time to charity, including the local food bank where he volunteered for many years. He was active in Toys for Tots every Christmas and supported the Wounded Warrior Project. Kevin was also an active Freemason at Lodge #62 of West Reading. Kevin was employed for many years at Arrow International and most recently at Brentwood Industries. Kevin is survived by his wife Tammy; mother, Juanita; brothers Keith, Kerry and Kyle; sisters Lisa and Linda; and many beloved nieces, nephews and cousins. In lieu of flowers, donations in Kevin’s memory can be made to The Girard College Alumni Association, 2101 S. College Avenue #605, Philadelphia, PA 19121. The Edward J. Kuhn Funeral Home, Inc., West Reading is honored to assist Kevin’s family. Condolences may be expressed at www.kuhnfuneralhomes.com.

I remember Kevin from my childhood. My cousin lived across the street from him on 10th Street when I was at her house we'd hang out with Kevin and Keith. What a good guy he was! I'm sure he's with God and all the angels now looking down upon us. I dont know Tammy but I wish that God comfort her in her loss, with the knowledge that Kevin is with Him now and in no pain. Sending Tammy and Kevin's mother my deepest sympathy!
Love & many blessings,
Marie Patestas (Bernhart)
