Kevin Edward Corbin

Kevin was born November 21, 1979 to Edward and Carla Corbin. Kansas City born and raised, he attended Center High School and went on to have very successful careers with AOS Technologies, Cisco Systems and HashiCorp. Kevin and his wife were also proud partners of Martin City Brewing Company.

Kevin leaves behind his loving wife JoAnna and two beautiful children, daughter Ryan Carrington(6) and son Macalan Edward (3). He is also survived by his mother Carla Corbin, his sister Amanda Adams (Chancie), their children, Ava and Aria, brother-in-law and sister-in-law, Steven and Jessica Hill and their children, Alec, Annabelle, Olive and Connor, brother-in-law and sister-in-law, David and Laura Gitterman and their children, Madelynn and Sophia, as well as numerous adoring aunts, uncles, and cousins. He is preceded in death by his father Edward, his maternal and paternal grandparents, and his four legged besties Kace, Newman and Sydney.

What Kevin loved most was spending time with his family. His biggest accomplishment and most prized title was that of being a father. His heart was huge and his love was infinite, especially for that of his beautiful wife Jo Anna. Kevin was fiercely ‘Forever Royal’ and a hardcore Chiefs fan. Whether it was a home computer problem or a large scale corporate enterprise network solution, his passion for technology and his ability to solve any problem was unmatched. Coding, family campouts, going fishing, trips to the beach, mowing the lawn with the kids and sailing on the Rum Runner were just some of the greatest moments for Kevin, JoAnna and their families.

Kevin also knew no strangers. He could easily pick up a conversation with anyone. Kevin could go toe to toe in any great debate over a wide array of different topics. On a Saturday night you could find him with the Wolfpack listening to Blackhawk radio, Hard Way in hand, giving words of wisdom to any open ear. “I find these things just work themselves out” is a phrase Kevin would often say.

Kevin thrived in any new adventure, as he proved when he became a COVID-born day trader. There was no task too big or too challenging for him. Kevin was always two feet in, knees deep. Forever knocking it out of the park. Kevin will always be remembered as the superhero he was.
