Kevin Patrick Maxwell Dies at 54
Paralyzed from a diving accident at the age of 19, Kevin lived a full and inspired life that friends and family witnessed, enjoyed and drew strength from for 35 years.
Kevin, in addition to his disability, suffered from polycystic kidney disease, a rare genetic disorder, which combined with his paralysis led to his death. He fought off near-death numerous times, to return to a life of happiness and fulfillment.
He leaves three older siblings, Diane, James, Christopher and his wife Debbie, his nieces, nephews, great-nieces, a great-nephew and many cousins and friends who he inspired (and vice-versa) and most importantly, all of his dedicated caregivers dating back to Rusk Institute in NYC to his “family” at Cowesett Home Care in Warwick.
Kevin was predeceased by his loving parents, Everett and Diane Maxwell, who sacrificed everything for Kevin’s comfort and happiness.
Visitation Friday, November 12th from 4-7 pm at Anderson-Winfield Home, Rt 44 at Greenville Common, Greenville.
Mass Saturday, November 13th at 10 am in St. Gregory the Great Church, 360 Cowesett Rd Warwick RI.
Kevin will be interred with his parents at RI Veteran’s Cemetery at a later date.
