He was born in Winchester, Indiana April 10, 1962, a son of Alma Lena (Miller) Allen and the late George Washington Allen. He was also preceded in death by a brother-in-law, Tony Gross.

On June 17, 1996, Kevin married Sherrie Smith, whom he affectionately referred to as “Woman” in Sevierville, Tennessee, and she survives. Also surviving are their two daughters, Nicole (Chris) Freewalt and Renee (Matt) Snow; five grandchildren, Raven Dion Shoffner, Hailey Lynn Mabry, KayLynn Eilene Mabry, Hunter Michael Mabry, and Ashton Robert Shoffner; a sister, Vicki Gross; two brothers, Troy (Brenda) Allen and Glenn (Linda) Allen and numerous nieces, nephews, aunts, and uncles who he loved dearly.

The family would like to express their sincere appreciation to Universal Home Health & Hospice, Bobbi Allen, Brent Abshear, and Adam Shoffner.

Kevin had worked as a Maintenance Lead at Plastipak Packaging for twenty five years. An avid motorcycle rider, he enjoyed shooting ranges and watching John Wayne western movies. Everyone that knew him enjoyed his jokes and laughter. Kevin most especially enjoyed the time he spent with his grandkids. They were his pride and joy. Kevin was truly one of a kind.
