Written by his mother Janice Hope

This is something I thought I would never be doing, informing friends of Kevin’s passing. It is a pain I cannot describe as a mother that gave him birth and loved him so much. Just short of his 25th birthday he decided to take his own life. We will never understand his deep pain and suffering he must have felt. The pressures of a young man trying to “make it” in this world.

This is a great shock to us all! His father, John Archambault, His brother, Arie Alexander Archambault, and half-brother, Chad David Marler, and to all his extended family and friends, it is a deep loss for us all.

Please send your love, peace and prayers, to us all, as we send our gratitude for this outpouring of love to you all.

Our family was especially blessed to call Idyllwild our home for many years. Kevin and Arie attended Idyllwild Elementary School through the Third and Fifth grades.  This was a school of such amazing loving teachers and friends we will always be grateful for.

I want Kevin to feel the love from you all! He was such a special Soul who would always light up the room with his smile. A loving and caring young man who knew who he was when working with children with Developmentally Challenged Children and coaching Water Polo.

This is a fine young man who everyone loved. A soul who loved to make a difference! He would be happy to know as an organ donor he may have saved at least 8 people’s lives!

I know he is with the Angels and surrounded in love and healing now. I have heard him and he has showed me he is with me in many ways. May he rest in Peace.

Let’s all show him how much he was loved and is missed! If you would like to be a part of this love and celebration of Kevin’s Life and come in honor and respect of him, his brothers, Arie and Chad myself and John and the entire family then I want you to come! Please come! There is seating room for 200 plus standing room…Let’s fill it to overflowing and come together in Love.
