August 26, 2020 at 10:13 amI worked with Kevin briefly at Magic and even though I’m sure I was just a face in the crowd of sales people he was always polite and said hello and asked how I was doing. Very sad to hear of his passing, rest easy Kevin John
Warm regard

Jessie Aiton says
August 27, 2020 at 7:13 pmI was devastated to read of Kevin’s death. He was a wonderful person and friend. I can hear his voice now as I write this, like caramel and so calming. Kevin was always so wonderful to work with and produce. He was open to new ideas and learning, he had no ego about him. Just wanted to do a good job for everyone around him and his listeners – the best job possible. He provided comfort and companionship to so many lonely people. He also had a wonderful sense of humour and made me laugh all the time. Sending my best wishes to Kevin’s family, his death is a huge loss to the radio industry.
Marie Smith says
August 25, 2020 at 5:44 pmA beautiful caring and thoughtful gentleman, gone too soon. A wonderful mentor and friend to my son Robbie Smith. I will miss hearing your perfect radio voice. Thankyou for your kindness Kevin, and sincere condolences to your loving family. RIP

Sarah Maree Cameron says
August 25, 2020 at 8:57 pmThe first time I met you, I was so excited to meet Kevin John from the radio. Someone who I had listened to and admired. Someone I’d heard so many kind things about and I hoped one day I’d be lucky enough to work with. The latter wasn’t to be but thanks to having mutual friends, I got to bump into you every now and then. Talking for hours, you sharing your wise words and thoughts on not just radio but many topics.
My favourite memory is staying up til sunrise with a few other night owls because when we noticed it was 4:30am, you suggested that we all may as well wait up a bit longer. I’m glad we all did.
I wish you were still here to watch another sunrise and share another story, KJ.
Rest easy.
Peter Morris says
August 25, 2020 at 9:05 pmA gentle and lovely man who would always warmly greet you.
One of the great guys of radio who not only did it well for many years but had the respect of everyone he worked with.
Rest In Peace KJ

He was always enthusiastic, totally professional, and a joy to have as part of our team.

We had a million laughs and many serious conversations too, both professionally and privately. The entire Magic 1278 team is so deeply saddened by KJ’s passing.

Mike Perso says
August 26, 2020 at 1:21 pmYou know I can only remember Kevin ever being kind. I can also remember him, in company with POCO, sitting around that flat in Carlton listening to old tapes of vintage Graham Kennedy radio shows, nights at Salona and so much laughter….a lovely man.

August 26, 2020 at 2:43 pmJust a wonderful human being. A joker, a prankster, a friend for life, and an amazing broadcaster. In the 30+ years I knew him every time I saw him I’d look forward to the KJ grin and wit. Our thoughts are with the family. He made the world a better place, simply by allowing us to share his.
Craig Huggins says

Marg McNally (DeBono) says
August 26, 2020 at 5:30 pmI’m wholly tempted to lay claim to Kevin as ‘my’ dear friend, but that would be futile. Because Kevin was the dearest of friends to so many. Such was the nature of the man. He loved purely and fully the people around him and made them feel they were the most special person in the world to him. And he’d mean it. He was authentic. Kevin was a giant of kindness, love, humanity. A great ponderer of life, reflective. He cherished the very breath that enabled us to inhale and exhale the thrum of life. Kevin seized the moments with a knowing that each one was precious, fleeting. He loved sunshine, coffee, the rattle and ding of a Melbourne tram, the high note in Gloria Estefan’s ‘Here we Are’. A lover of words and wit, he was a master of both. Yes, his radio voice was a boomer, but it was always more about the considered way in which Kevin spoke. You would hang on his words, and then roll on the floor laughing along with his hearty, dirty laugh. He was the consummate professional. Creative, principled, measured and as silly as a wheel. Charismatic and enigmatic. Our deep friendship spanned more than three decades. I grew up and older with Kev. Kevin, what a privilege to have shared the road with you for a while. Thanks for the laughs, the tears, the deep and meaningfuls, the dizzy days of dancing, drinking (the odd doob), and the love. I adored you in this life and I will honour you into your next, for the rest of my days.
Sue Lapetina says
August 26, 2020 at 6:07 pmNag Champa, cups of Dilmah, extra hot latte, Italian espresso, teddy bear biscuits, spending time with family & friends, his love of Melbourne & his home town, radio & music were some of Kev’s favourite things. I will miss your smile, laughter & hugs & most of all our phone chats,. I have many years of wonderful memories. The fun & great times shared. Bless you my dear friend. I miss you already. Rest in peace.

On behalf of those who knew and worked with you in your 3KZ days, we thank you for being the man you were, a pleasure to know.
To your family and friends, deepest sympathies to you all. Kevin was one of the best!
Denise remilton says
August 26, 2020 at 11:21 pmA very funny beautiful Warm man who l met and became friends with he was 20 And l was 22

August 27, 2020 at 1:26 pmAh Kev… you were one of the best! Working alongside you for all those years was one thing, but the fun & friendship we had outside of work will be what I will remember most. Some of the best times of my life were shared with you. We haven’t seen as much of each other over recent years, but the love was always there. We would pick up like it was yesterday. You were always there with the right words at the right time. You will be so dearly missed my friend. My love goes out to your family, who you spoke of often & loved dearly X
Jeanette freeman says
August 27, 2020 at 3:19 pmJulie, so sorry to hear of your brothers passing. The shock, pain and sorrow you feel just now will dim as your happy memories grow stronger. My thoughts are with you, Susan and your families.
Elizabeth O'Callaghan says
August 27, 2020 at 4:04 pmBeautiful man, beautiful voice. You always warmed the room with your presence and made people feel special. I always laugh when I recall the fun living with you and my Uncle ‘Poco’ O’Callaghan for a short time in the 90’s…even though I couldn’t get a word in with you two radio guys! When I got in the car yesterday and read your Death notice I said “…Talk to me Kev”, I turned on the radio and the song playing was Eurythmics “Must be talking to an Angel”. I’m sure a few Angels are celebrating…Love you ‘Lib’, Elizabeth O’Callaghan
Luca Gonano says
August 27, 2020 at 5:01 pmKevin, you will be missed. I’ll always remember with great fondness our chats in the office. Such a lovely, lovely man. My thoughts are with all of your family and friends. Rest in peace.

August 27, 2020 at 6:32 pmMy dearest Kev. My heart broke when I heard the news and I just couldn’t believe it. I haven’t seen you for a couple of years but each time we caught up with the ‘gang’ it was like we had seen each other yesterday. I will miss your laugh, your kindness, your sense of fun and your fantastic smell!
Ken Francis says
August 27, 2020 at 7:51 pmKevin we are all so shocked you are gone. I just loved being with you at Magic/3AW. I knew the “voice” from the radio but am so thankful I got to know and spend time with “the man”. You are everything that people have said about you. A thoroughly decent and caring gentleman. You made everyone around you feel special. I will miss just sitting and chatting endlessly about radio with you. I loved it….I was hoping we’d do it again. Travel safely my friend. My deepest condolences to your family and loved ones.
Joan Peters says

You are all in my thoughts in a big way. How lucky the family were to have such a very very special “Kevin” in their lives! The rest of us were blessed to have a piece of Kevin in our lives. Taken away from us all, but not taken are our beautiful and happy memories that will be with us always.
Lots of love

August 28, 2020 at 11:00 amMy Good mate Kev, I don’t even know where to begin? Your friendship to me over the radio days was priceless and even more so in my private life! Asling street, Salona’s, Portofino and the Queensbridge just to mention a few of the places we shared a bevvy or Ten! You introduced and showed me many things along the way of which I will be forever grateful, Pachelbel’s Canon in D will never sound the same. My love goes out to your family. You were a good man Kev! Love Tim & Jac
Francine Duncanson says

Bev Main says
August 28, 2020 at 1:04 pmDeepest sympathy to Ugo, Julie & John, Susan & Alan and their families. My heart breaks for you. Kevin was a lovely man who cared so very much for his family. A true gentleman who wore an infectious smile always. Thoughts and love go out to you all. Memories of the old Post Office Days as kids with our beautiful mum’s and Saturday night teas and sitting on the roof top. Bev & Greg Main, David and Ruth Brook and families.
Tracy Matthews says
August 28, 2020 at 3:33 pmA kind, funny, caring man I had the pleasure to work with for a few short joyous years. Go gently Kevin. Sincere condolences to his family and friends.
Moya O'Shea says
August 28, 2020 at 4:42 pmKevin John and I met at Radio 3KZ where we were both part of the ‘on air’ team and have been pals ever since. Time spent in his company was always a joy filled with what I called ‘Kevin moments’ when he would tell you a story of great poignancy or ask you to just stop, look around and revel in the present.
Memories of KZ, Riviera Radio, a crazy evening making 400 Tequila sunrises in London (truly!), Mrs B., PO’C, Melbourne walking tours, that ‘abracadabra’ concert at the Melbourne Show, lunches in Lygon…
Your wonderful voice, dear Kevin, will forever be ‘the music in my head’ and your friendship fabulous but not nearly long enough.
My love and condolences at this saddest of times to your wonderful family, of whom you spoke with such affection.
Mitch Michelle Morris says
August 28, 2020 at 7:24 pmKev,
You were the epitome of what it means to be a true friend, and that is the reason why time and distance always disappeared when we caught up. I have so many special memories of the many times we shared, but foremost are the ones we shared overseas. Backpacking adventures that led us far and wide. I will forever smile whenever I recall any of them, and my travel diary that the three of us penned entries into has now become even more of a treasure.
Your kindness, vivaciousness and infectious distinctive laugh will be greatly missed by so many.
Saluti a te amico mio.
Deepest sympathies to Ugo, July and John, Susan and Alan and families who you loved so deeply.
Lynn Dare says
August 28, 2020 at 7:55 pmEven at school he was such a kind and compassionate person. The world was priviledged to enjoy his light, his smile so welcoming.
Mr Andrighetto, Julie, Susan and families amidst all the sadness may your memories continue to shine his light.
Kate Economou says
August 29, 2020 at 3:11 amWhat a hole has been left behind from you leaving us. You were always so warm and kind and generous. I had some of the best times working with you and enjoying the odd drink or two or more out of work with you and the TTFM gang . There was something so special about you that made a person want to spend as much time as possible with you. You taught me so much and I will cherish my memories of you.
Bernie Brittain says
August 29, 2020 at 8:13 amWhat a lovely welcoming and caring individual you were KJ.
We met at 3UZ in 1986 and you treated a new young disc jockey like a real mate from the outset.
My memories of you are always full of good times and lots of laughs.
Taken way too early from us I hope you are at peace.
Much love and sympathies to your wonderful family.
Jeff Thomas says

Nicky Buckley says
August 30, 2020 at 5:54 pmI have the fondest memories of my time working with Kevin at TTFM. I wasnt a morning person then, and still am not a morning person now but he made my stint on breakfast radio a joy to attend work every morning, even when I was secretly suffering morning sickness with my first child. I was so very shocked and saddened to hear of his passing. my deepest sympathies and condolences to the family. he will be missed.
Darryl Ferber says
September 1, 2020 at 11:54 amI was completely stunned – lost for words. A sad silence fell the day this beautiful, kind man left us. If there was ever the pleasure to be a friend with and to have known someone, it was with this man. There are so many wonderful things to be said about you, but we will be forever lost for words. Rest easy Kevin our friend.
Steve price says
September 2, 2020 at 7:52 am‘If you could leave this world better than you found it’ I see those and so many more words he sent to me, every day, my world has been blessed by knowing and loving Kevin. I’m shattered but every time I selfishly think of my loss , I think of Ugo and the family he loved so much , to all our thoughts prayers and love. Actually I’d like to thank the family for giving us Kev , the most wonderful friend one could have, with me always , with us always, this crazy world needs kevy. I simply wish I was not writing this , and I could ring him hear his wisdom , his laugh and wondrous stories.
Thinking of Ugo and family
Joyce Asa Leausa (Pugh) says
September 2, 2020 at 10:15 amKevin, a man so kind, so calm and gentle, with a beautiful, deep melodious voice that became his trademark. It was my pleasure to have known Kevin in my High School years – a welcome member of our group. Later, several of my sons got to know him as ‘Uncle Kev’, through their friendships with his nephews, who he adored. It made Wonthaggi feel like home when we occasionally bumped into one another down the street and had a catch-up chat. Always a smile and kind, sincere words. The Leausa and Pugh families extend their condolences to Sue and Julie and their families at this very difficult time. Taken too young. So sad.

September 2, 2020 at 9:44 pmThere’s a hole in our world that never seemed possible.
Kevin was the one of the kindest and most sincere people we knew. He appreciated moments, making memories and just spending time together. “It’s great to be here”, “Look at this!” and “Beeyoootiful” are just a few of his frequent exclamations that are etched in memory.
To our sons, for the past 15 years Kevin was the most significant adult in their lives outside of family. They adored him and always will.
He made sure we knew he loved us, and we love him right back. We are eternally grateful for more than three decades of friendship. We will miss his hugs, his voice, and his company forever.

September 4, 2020 at 1:26 pmKevin, your personality lit up Magic and 3AW. You made everyone feel good about themselves. You helped so many in their careers, including me. This is such a huge loss. Devastated we won’t be working together anymore, and I won’t see your smiling face. Thanks for entertaining so many with your words.
My love and condolences to your family. Xx

February 6, 2021 at 6:11 pmWe only just learned of Kevin’s passing. He was a wonderful bloke and was with us at our wedding in 1988. Such a warm, caring person. In 1990, after he went back to Melbourne, he was working with the Red Cross and brought 12 kids with Leukaemia to Monaco. He said their dream was to meet Prince Albert, so we organised that. The kids met the prince at a special reception at Monaco Red Cross and had their dreams fulfilled. They were over the moon, and Albert really spent quality time with them. They had gone through hell but Kevin organised a little bit of heaven for them. Kevin, you have done a lot of good on earth. It is remembered. You are missed. For many people you were already an angel.
