Kevin Barger

Kevin S. Barger, 59, loving husband, father, son, and brother passed away unexpectedly on October 31, 2020.  Kevin is preceded in death by his parents Kelly & Jean Barger.  He is survived by his wife Gayle, son Beau, daughter Brenna, brother Kyle Barger (Amy), sister Kim McMillan (Dan) and extended family.

Kevin attended Campbell University where he played baseball for the Fighting Camels and where he met the love of his life Gayle. The two were married for 33 ½ years.

Kevin was known for his quick wit and kept others around him in laughter.  He grew up in Raleigh playing baseball and football for his father at Wilder’s Grove and was a standout athlete at Enloe High School.   Kevin coached baseball with Garner Legion, GBI, Wake Independent, and Wake Christian for many years. He also was an assistant football coach at Wake Christian Academy.  He enjoyed coaching baseball and football and having an impact on his players’ lives.  His passion was sports and he worked as a Sales Rep in the industry for over 20 years.

Kevin also had a strong faith in Jesus and loved his family dearly.  He will be missed.

The family would like to thank Montlawn Funeral Home & Cremation for their care and assistance during this difficult time.  We would also like to thank the Wake Christian Academy family and Garner community for their outpouring of support.  It means so much to our family.
