Kevin McEnerney Obituary

March 21, 1956 - October 20, 2021 Staten Island native, born and raised in South Beach and then Silver Lake, Kevin McEnerney died in Tucson, Arizona where he has lived since 2011. Kevin graduated from Curtis High School in 1974. He worked for the NYC Dept. of Marine & Aviation for a few years and then as a 911 operator for the NYC Police Department before moving to Seattle in 1991. He retired in 2011 after a 20 year career as a 911 operator for the Seattle Police Department. He is survived by his loving wife Kristi and his four siblings, Diana Murphy, William McEnerney, Kathleen McEnerney and Susan McEnerney. Kevin is also survived by two step daughters, four grandchildren and several nieces and nephews. He was a devoted family man. He loved sports, music, fishing, travel and wildlife. He and his wife Kristi, are both avid Seattle Seahawk fans. He was an accomplished photographer. In retirement he was an active member of an online print-on-demand photography business. Kevin enjoyed serving as a tour guide for family and friends visiting the Seattle area and then in Tucson where he lived most recently. He knew more about those areas than folks who lived in those places their entire lives. He had a wonderful sense of humor and was referred to as (our Seinfeld) by his sister-in- law Becky. He will be sorely missed and remain forever in our hearts. There will be no formal service at this time.
