In the first hour of June 29, 2016, the beautiful energy that was Kevin Lee Cordill escaped a physical form riddled by pancreatic cancer to become an eternal part of all there is. He passed peacefully in his home with his soul mate of 35 years by his side and a multitude of friends and family nearby.

Kevin, 61, of Custer, SD, is survived by his wife, Nita Effertz also of Custer; brother, Larry Cordill of Ocala, FL; and sister, Suzanne Matsumoto, of Wilmington, NC.

A memorial tribute to Kevin will be held in his beloved Custer State Park at a future date.
