In Memory

Kevin Lizzo VIEW PROFILE

This information was provided by Kevin's brother, Vincent.

After St. Mary's, Kevin went to Loyola Academy. He then attended Marquette University and graduated with an Electrical Engineering degree.  After college he worked for Square D Company and then got a job with Raytheon Corporation in Massachusetts. He designed rocket telemetry systems.

Kevin became somewhat of an athlete and went on long skiing and bicycle trips. I once visited him in Massachusetts and we spent a whole day biking around Nantucket Island. By the end of the day, I was beat but he was ready to do it again the next day.

He met a woman out there, Tricia MacMurray, and got married. They did not have children. Sadly, he contracted Hodgkin's Lymphoma and died in 1982 surrounded by his wife and family. Tricia has always remained close to us and has recently remarried. In fact, she and her husband visited our family over Christmas.

Kevin was everything you would want in an older brother. Sometimes he rough-housed with me and other times he watched out for me. We all miss him greatly. Thank you for keeping him in your thoughts.

What a great description of Kevin. It is fun to read of his successses in life. I just remeber him of being quiet and yet in trouble frequently. It probably was his fun loving spirit that kept coming out!
