Kevin was born to Steven Tripp and Linda Looney Tripp on January 10, 1969, in Las Vegas, Nevada. He passed away, unexpectedly from cardiac arrest, on November 27, 2021, at home in Bullhead City, Arizona.
Kevin worked in the mining industry and moved from Elko, Nevada to Bullhead City, Arizona in 2019. He made friends wherever he went. One of the mines he worked at, Cargill Salt Mine in Cleveland, Ohio, he said was an experience of a lifetime. Kevin’s favorite place to be in Bullhead City, was the river. He went there, almost every day, and anyone that knew him would know to go to the river to find him.
Kevin enjoyed swimming, surfing as a kid, hockey as a kid, fishing, throwing a ball around with the boys, and spending time with his fiancée, his son and his fiancée’s son, C. Jay. He was always up for a road trip to Vegas, Mt. Charleston or just around any body of water.
