We are deeply saddened to share that Kevin passed away this morning. Two weeks ago, Kevin fell ill with his third case of pneumonia within the last year. Unfortunately, despite excellent care at Riddle Hospital, his body did not respond to treatment. Kevin passed comfortably and without pain.
We know that you all share our heartbreak at this news. Beyond being a wonderful son and brother, Kevin has been a vibrant, caring, selfless, and positive presence in all of our lives. Words cannot express the loss that we will all experience. We cannot begin to encapsulate that here. We plan to hold a viewing on Friday evening and a funeral service on Saturday. Details are below.
We want to reiterate how much everyone’s support has meant to Kevin and our family. Dealing with tragedy is never easy, but the love and community that has been maintained over the years to support Kevin has been nothing short of remarkable and a testament to the power of community. While this is a difficult time, please know that we are grateful to everyone for your support. In the coming days, we ask for grace as we grieve.
In lieu of flowers, we request that donations be made to Salesianum School in Kevin’s honor. A scholarship fund will be established by the family in the near future.

I am deeply saddened by the news of Kevin’s passing. Despite what he had to endure these past years, he truly was an inspiration to me and probably everyone who knew him.

To All of the members of the Neary Family and all whom he loved,
At times like this there are never enough words to write or to say.
Kevin has found his peace and now you all will need to find yours.
It was a journey in which all saw pain, strength, kindness, laughter, love and memories made. May you find some comfort in any joyous, funny memory of Kevin despite the hard days.
I am sure knowing the Neary family there are plenty.
Sincerely,
The Ebner Family
Sending my sincerest condolences and love to the entire Neary family at this time. Kevin was such a beautiful and kind soul. One of my favorite people. He will be missed immensely!
In haven’t communicated with Kevin for quite a while, but I knew him before the attack and after. What a loss for all of us who had the luxury, albeit brief, of having had Kevin on our lives. My deepest condolences to the family and those close to Kevin. God bless.
Kevin was a super nice guy who I met while I was working in real estate management and he worked for a window cleaning company in operations before he started his own business. Always stopped by to chat and have lunch. Was so funny and polite. I feel heat broken by his lost but not as much as those closest to him. My deepest condolences to his love ones. Your start will still shine elsewhere. RIP
