Kevin was born in Racine on December 27, 1955 to John and Lorraine (nee: Koski) Wirt. He was employed by JI Case for many years until illness led to his retirement. On June 27, 1987, Kevin was united in marriage with Lynn Slaasted. Among his interests, Kevin was a “car guy” especially passionate about Mustangs; loved organizing his garage; was quite the storyteller and jokester, with a great sense of humor; owned a Harley Davidson (ask Lynn about that story!).

Kevin is survived by his wife, Lynn; children, Stephanie (Rob) Waterfield, Marc (Callie) Rannow, Kyle (Nikki) Rannow and Cory Wirt; grandchildren, Hannah, Kaylee, Helena, Bryan, Trynity and Lucas; sisters, Karen Wirt and Kathleen (Mark) Nielsen; brothers and sisters-in-law, Dale and Sherry Slaasted, Carol Meshenky, John Slaasted, Jeff and Tina Slaasted; best friend, Leo Wagner; other relatives and friends. Kevin was preceded in death by his parents, John and Lorraine; Lynn’s parents, Hans and Bernice Slaastad; and all his beloved animal companions through the years.
