    Happy Birthday Finan! Miss this big fella. One of the first guys I met when I started with Pandera Systems. We had some great times when he came to Boston - Kevin loved the clam chowder but he hilariously never ventured past Legal Seafoods. No matter how...  more

    Kevin,

    You were always one of the kindest people I knew during our time at St. Leo’s and PVI. In junior high, I remember bonding with you over our mutual love for the Space Jam soundtrack (it’s funny to think about it now) and the time you wanted...  more

    I consider myself incredibly fortunate to have known Kevin Finan. Kevin always had a smile on his face and truly had an infectious personality that made everyone around him happier. I’ll forever miss those cathartic work conversations we always had...  more

    It was such a shock to hear the news of Kevin’s passing, as he was so full of life and such a positive person. I had the pleasure of working with Kevin at MicroStrategy and saw him make a huge impact on so many people. Kevin definitely made the most...  more

    This is still unreal for me. I miss you so much bud.

    You were the center of my MicroStrategy universe. Always helping make introductions and going above and beyond trying to cover up for our MicroStrategy friends when they would disappoint. Our time...  more

    When I think of Kevin, I always smile. He was one of those rare individuals who always brighten up the room. He brought so much joy into our life.

    I still remember when Kim and I ran into ex-Redskins player, LaVar Arrington, at a local sports bar in...  more

    It is impossible to put 15 years of thoughts and memories into words. I met Kevin through work and knew right away we would become friends and share many laughs together. When I look at the picture of us in this photo gallery, it brings up so many...  more

    was shocked and saddened to hear the news of Kevin’s passing. It’s been years since we worked together directly but it’s a small world and I would run into Kevin frequently at a local Starbucks. He always had a huge smile and was so kind. We’d...  more

    Kevin,

    I’m getting ready to head into MicroStrategy World for the first time with out you, and it just doesn’t seem right. We became close 9 years ago when I first started at the company and Tom, you and I would grab lunch every day. We shared a ton...  more

    No matter where or when I met Kevin, he always had a huge smile on his face and was such a joy to be around. My prayers and condolences to his family. He will be missed.

    Kevin,
    You were such a positive, genuine, kind-hearted person! I feel thankful that we worked together. And I'm really gonna miss you and your smile!

    C W:
    It's still unreal that Kevin is gone. He was one of the few people who would call me periodically just to catch up and we would spend WAY too much time gossiping. The fact that he would still reach out said a lot about Kevin - his character and who he...  more

    I've started and restarted this post 7 times now. I honestly am a little lost because Kevin was truly an integral part of my life and I can't even begin to verbalize how much we are going to miss him. I think it's to the point that I haven't really...  more

    Kevin,

    I don't even know where to start... I can't wrap my mind around this at all. Since we were kids, you've been like a little brother to me. We were always together... You, Pat, Danny, Nick and I... We were like family. There are too many memories...  more

    Deepest condolences to Joanne and family. Sending love and prayers.

    The Finan family, I just wanted to reinforce much of what you are already hearing....the great things about Kevin. I had the privilege of approving Kevin for hire at MicroStrategy and as an employee in our Business Development group, Kevin not only...  more

    Kevin, I really still can’t believe you’re gone. From our shenanigans in high school getting our Catholic education and all the years beyond, we shared so many fun times and laughter!

    I remember a few years back we ran into each other in the Miami...  more

    Cailey & Parker Finan, who both wanted to say something to Uncle Kevin:

    From Cailey (9):
    Dear Uncle Kevin I remember how you would come to all my dance shows and we used to play and have fun. I remember how nice you are and had so many friends and I...  more
  • Denis Brosnan
    Kev - throughout the last week or so I’ve been thinking a lot about you and the wonderful memories you created. Some of my fondest memories were those days spent at Waters Field in Vienna during football season. We would carpool in your mom’s giant...  more
  • Margaret Drakensjo
    Kevin - Through all the years of school together (and all the awkward phases we all went through), you were consistently a sweet and kind guy. Ever since the first grade, I’ve remembered your birthday was the day after mine and I will celebrate a...  more
  • Molly Bases
    One of my most favorite people. Growing up with you, laughing until we got in trouble in 3rd grade, and all of our special talks - I’ll never forget. An amazing friend. Love you always, Kev.
  • Sheila Brosnan
    You were one of my first playmates and always put up with me following you around when we were kids. I’ll never forget you finally admitting to stealing my lost tooth when we were practicing for Reconciliation (I already knew it was you). It’s hard...  more

    Kev, This is us, St. Leos dance, circa '97. We were punks and had a great time. You are greatly missed by all and I love you, pal.
  • Julius Berith
    Kev, I'm really gonna miss you brother. I'm struggling to find the words to say how I feel. In our last communication you sent me an email that read:

    "Outstanding work. Proud of you. No matter if I manage (lol) you or not I'm still very excited to...  more

    I met Kevin at MicroStrategy conference probably 7+ years ago. I started using the services from Pandera at different places, in large part because I felt I could trust Kevin. In all those years, he has always been there for me. Always listening to the...  more

    Big Kev! I will miss you my man. The most fun business trip that I've had since joining Pandera was the trip to Austin last summer with you and your business development team. I'll never forget the night at the dueling piano bar and will...  more

    Love you Kevin. You were a big brother to me. Thanks for being an amazing and loyal friend. You will not be forgotten.
  • Todd Breinich
    What I loved about Kevin was that he was the genuine article, there was no pretense or fakeness. If you asked his opinion , you got his real opinion and often at a volume that was louder than you were expecting lol.
    Kevin had a big heart.
    Kevin loved his...  more

    Damn, Kevin. I was just texting with you Thursday. Hard to believe you're gone. We were just becoming fast friends. Working together with you through our two companies was a privilege. I wish our friendship could have grown to its full potential. I have...  more

    Oh Kevin, you were a delight. I remember first seeing you at MicroStrategy and thinking, "Did Pat get a makeover? He's looking so much better." Then I heard it was a different Finan. Then I ended up in an office right near your cube. ...  more

    There are some people in life that leave a lasting positive impression on you, and Kevin was one of those people. Everyone that had the opportunity to get to know him would say the same thing, he was one of the most genuine and kind hearted guys I knew....  more

    S J:
    Kev... he lit a fire under my ass metaphorically when I needed it, he put dirty socks in my mouth literally when I wanted nothing more than to know what it’s like to have big brothers, he once in awhile gave me smiles so loving and peaceful, gentle and...  more

    There's so much I can say here, but at the same time I cant seem to say anything...I'm going through bouts of being fine and then completely not. I'll try to write more later or share some of the stories of you that will be the ones I remember for years...  more
