In loving memory of Kevin Totty: A beloved community leader, mentor, and friend

With deep sadness, we announce the passing of Kevin Totty, a beloved community leader, mentor, and friend. Kevin was a man of many hats, both literally and figuratively, using each one to represent the countless roles he played in our lives and our community.

Born and raised in Detroit, Kevin’s life was shaped by the values of community and service, passed down from his father. He dedicated himself to bringing people together, breaking down barriers, and fostering connections that would strengthen the fabric of our community.

Kevin’s work with the Community Foundation and his involvement in various organizations touched countless lives. His passion for mentorship and his commitment to lifting others up were the hallmarks of his life’s mission. He had an incredible ability to make everyone feel valued and understood, leaving a lasting impact on all who knew him.

Even as he faced his own battle with cancer, Kevin remained focused on his purpose, viewing it as an opportunity to mentor even more people. His unwavering strength and positive spirit were an inspiration to us all.

Kevin is survived by his loving wife Jessica, their five children, and his cherished grandchildren. His legacy will live on through the many lives he touched and the community he loved so dearly. Though we will miss him deeply, we find comfort in knowing that his influence will continue to be felt for generations to come.
