"I saw a great life", says a friend. Kevin Matthew Crowley, surrounded by family, passed peacefully into the arms of his Savior, on Thursday, September 11th, 2014. Born October 18th, 1985 in Albuquerque, New Mexico, to Brian and Janet (Coonrod) Crowley, Kevin lived his early years there and in Roswell, New Mexico, moving with his family to Brookfield, WI in 2000, and recently to West Allis to the home he purchased and shared with his beloved wife, Sasena Fairbanks. Kevin was very determined and focused in all he did, setting goals and achieving them. He worked hard and excelled in school, graduating from Brookfield East High School in 2004. He studied accounting and finance at the University of Wisconsin/Milwaukee, graduating in December 2008. In December 2011 he received his master's degree at UWM and his CPA license in 2012. Kevin enjoyed sports and participated for many years in community soccer and basketball. He was on school teams at Berrendo Middle School, Roswell, NM and Brookfield East High School, Brookfield, WI, for soccer, basketball and track. Kevin loved music and taught himself to play the guitar. He was part of the high school and young adult worship bands at Spring Creek Church, played for the worship band at The Ave while in college, and ministered through the worship band at Epikos Church. Kevin's faith was strong. He committed his life to Jesus Christ at a young age, and walked with the Lord in the years following, living out his faith for others to see. Kevin lived life, enjoying unique restaurants, taking trips, hanging with friends and family, cycling along the lake, listening to music, and watching sports and movies. Kevin had a strong work ethic. In high school and college he worked at Prints.com, did an internship at Schenck Business Solutions, then worked full-time at Schenck from 2011 until his passing, having gained the position of Senior Tax Accountant. Though battling cancer, he was diligently at work every day, except when recovering from surgeries, gaining great respect and support from all his coworkers. Kevin loved and was loved by his family and many friends. A parent could ask for a no better and treasured son; a wife for a no more loving and caring husband; brothers for a no more inspirational and supportive sibling; friends for a no more fun and encouraging companion, coworkers for a no more dedicated and resourceful colleague. Kevin leaves behind a very devoted and precious wife, Sasena Fairbanks whom he married on 11/10/12. Although together only a few years they experienced more love and joy together than many experience in 10 times as many years. He also leaves his parents, Brian and Janet Crowley, who deeply loved Kevin and learned much from him. Not only will Jason (Julianna) and Aaron Crowley miss their older brother in whom they found tremendous inspiration to live life, but so will his special sisters-in-laws, Julianna Felker Crowley and Shianna Fairbanks. Nephew Matthew, awesome like his uncle, has a big name to live up to. Kevin was also very much loved by his in-laws, Craig and Renita Fairbanks. He leaves behind many loving family members in New Mexico and Texas, including grandpap and step-grandma Joe & Norma Coonrod, and granny Daisy Crowley; aunts and uncles Kurt and Kelly (Bowles) Coonrod, Paul and Julie (Allred) Coonrod, Sandy (Crowley) and Michael Guest, Ernie and Rhadonna (Vosburg) Crowley, Terry and Susan (Clark) Crowley, and cousins Sonya, Carolyn, Jeff, Amy, Katie, Greg, Alyssa, and Jessica. He was preceded in death by grandma Winifred (Winnie) Coonrod and papa Ernest (Ernie) Crowley. Kevin was diagnosed with metastatic Ewing's Sarcoma in February 2010, and although he lived with pain for 5 years he never complained. Though he endured almost constant chemo or radiation treatments for most of the past 4 ½ years he still pressed forward, reaching toward the goals any healthy young adult would work towards. He was an amazing man and he taught us all much these past years. He never let cancer win, didn't let it rule his life, nor shade his decisions. He fought to the end, but then in the final days peacefully accepted that his body was tired and giving out. Kevin gained a great victory as cancer dies with no host, but Kevin lives on in the hearts and minds of those he loved and those who loved him. Most importantly, though, he lives on in his heavenly HOME. Yes, Kevin is HOME and walking with Jesus. He lived a great life!In lieu of flowers the family asks for memorials to cover the many expenses.
