My wife, daughter, and I have lived in Kenmore since 2018, and we’ve truly come to love this village and the people who make it special. I’ve worked at Progressive Insurance for over 20 years and now spend much of my time building websites and digital tools as part of my data analyst role. I’m excited to volunteer as the new KVIS Webmaster and look forward to helping support and strengthen the community we’re proud to call home.

In Memoriam: Philip Yeoh
Philip Yeoh was a Kenmore resident who was a professional photographer and graphic designer of the highest caliber who contributed much to the KVIS. The owner of Mad Panda Studio, Phil gave many hours of service to the Kenmore community through the KVIS. From fixing complex computer files to prepare them for printing to making a banner stand for use at KVIS meetings, Phil made himself available to help; he used his time, resources, and considerable talents and skills to help promote the work of the Society whenever he was asked. Phil was the kind of person everyone wishes for in a neighbor, a relative, or a friend -he was reliable, trustworthy and straight forward, kind and generous. A loving father and husband, Phil valued family and community and actively showed this in the way he lived his life; he was a noble and respected person who showed a true sense of gentility in all situations. Though he died when he was still rather young and is missed greatly, it seems as if Phil is with us -he is a shining and inspirational example of a life well lived.
