Kevin Eagles entered this world on March 22, 1960, in New York. He was the son of the late Othella Eagles Bush and Richard Davis. Raised in the home of his grandparents, Deacon James and Romel Eagles of Conway, SC, he learned to respect “old school” values like, “do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” He was raised in a Christian home and accepted Christ as his savior. He joined Cherry Hill Missionary Baptist Church at a young age and continued to be a lifelong affiliate when he returned to the area.
Kevin was an avid reader and lover of music. He played the saxophone and loved listening to legendary saxophonists in his free time. He was a member of the Marching Tiger Band at Conway High School under the direction of Mr. Leslie McIver. He was a member of the Conway High School Class of 1978. He also earned a spot on the junior varsity basketball roster. Kevin’s personality made him a “man about campus.”
After graduation, Kevin began his military career in the United States Navy. As an Elite Naval Sonar Technician, extensive travel took him all over the world. Upon his return home, he focused on family. He assisted with the care of his grandmother. He worked in various fields which included education, UPS, PTR, and online support for Amazon.
God’s favor joined Kevin and Christi in Holy Matrimony. With that union, a loving family was created. Kevin and Christi were entrusted with the love and care of Jasmine and Anya.
