Kevin was born on July 28, 1970, to the late Clark Curtis and Kathleen (Olson) Raftery.

Kevin was a remarkable man whose kindness, quick wit, intelligence, and genuine love for others left a lasting impression on everyone fortunate enough to know him. He had a special way of making people feel welcome, valued, and appreciated. His friendly personality and ability to strike up a conversation with just about anyone made him someone people naturally gravitated toward. Whether sharing a story, offering a helping hand, or simply enjoying a good conversation, Kevin had a gift for connecting with others.

Kevin was a dedicated and talented professional who took great pride in his work. He began his career with FedEx Services/FedEx Freight on February 1, 2001, serving as a Programmer Analyst III. Throughout his career, he earned the respect and admiration of his colleagues through his knowledge, dedication, and willingness to help others. Kevin also served as Vice President at Bear Stearns for one year and six months and worked as a consultant with PowerCerv for five years and two months. More than just a coworker, Kevin was a trusted friend to many, and those who worked alongside him often considered him family.

Outside of his professional life, Kevin had a wide variety of interests that reflected his fun-loving personality and curious mind. He was an enthusiastic fan of NASCAR, Star Trek, old movies, and the Detroit Red Wings. A self-proclaimed computer geek, Kevin had a passion for technology and loved sharing his knowledge with others. His sharp sense of humor and quick wit could brighten even the most ordinary day. He had a remarkable ability to make people laugh, and his conversations could easily last for hours.

Above all else, Kevin loved his family. His relationships with those closest to him were among his greatest treasures. He was a loving son, brother, uncle, and friend whose presence brought joy, laughter, and warmth to countless family gatherings and everyday moments. His love for his family was evident in the way he cared for them and the special bonds he shared with each of them.

He also leaves behind his beloved uncle, Gary Olson (Melanie) of Lake Orion, Michigan, along with many extended family members, friends, and colleagues who will forever treasure his memory.
