SFC (Ret.) Kevin Randall Speaks, age 61, entered into eternal life on Sunday, July 4, 2021.
After graduating from North Iredell High School in 1978, Kevin joined the United States Army, and he served faithfully as a supply sergeant for 20 years. One tour of duty took him to Seoul, Korea, where he met the love of his life, Haeng Sun. They were married on November 17, 1980.
Kevin and Haeng Sun settled in Clarksville in 1998. He was employed by Technica for 22 years before his retirement in 2020 and was a member of Faith Outreach Church, where he volunteered in the audio-visual department.
He was preceded in death by his father, Willie Speaks; brother, Stephen Speaks, and brother-in-law, Oh Haeng Gun.
Kevin made an impact that will live on forever in the hearts of the family who remain: his mother, Dorothy Speaks; his wife, Haeng Sun Speaks and daughter, Angela Speaks; son, Kevin Randall, Jr. (Randy); grandson, Dandre Tonia-Speaks; sisters, Candace Dobson (Stephen) and Kendra Timberlake (Don), and sisters-in law, Oh Yoong Ja (Kim Bok Hyn), Myong Sun King (Ray), Chong Sun Coleman (Edward) and Kim Tae Wook.
He is also loved and cherished by a host of nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.
