Kevin Weldon lost his battle with kidney cancer on Sunday October 7, 2012 at age 49. Kevin was born September 25, 1963 in Hawthorne, CA. to Lloyd Weldon and the late Audrey Goff Weldon. A long time resident of Tonganoxie, Kevin married Brenda Eisman and her 2 children, Stephen Shivers (Tonganoxie) and April LaVigne (Leavenworth) in 1990 – they survive him. In 1999, Kevin and Brenda started Honeycreek Disposal Company. Kevin loved the outdoors – riding his Harley – and car racing. Kevin loved his customers, kids and pets. Diagnosed with cancer in December 2011, Kevin will be remembered for never saying “why me”. Kevin displayed such grace in how he handled his disease. He was our rock.
