Kevin Wayne Selivanow Kevin Wayne Selivanow was born the son of Wayne and Ethel (Gill) Selivanow on Thursday, December 4, 1958 in Hillsboro, Oregon. Kevin lived in Newberg for the past ten years. He also resided in Astoria, Knappa, Portland and Gladstone. Kevin installed hardwood floors for a living and was best known for installing bleached white wood flooring. You could always find him in the garage playing the guitar, both electric and acoustic, writing songs or listening to talk radio shows. Landscaping in his yard and tending to the flowers in the front yard of his father’s home was something he truly enjoyed. Kevin often traveled to Lee Falls where he dove into the water and swam as much as he could. Traveling to the beach and cooking up great barbecue’s with his family was a favorite pastime of his. Kevin never missed a chance to chat with whoever pulled up in the driveway while he washed his father’s car or the travel RV. Instead of saying goodbye he always said “Hasta-la-cha-cha.” On Friday, November 11, 2011, Kevin Wayne Selivanow died in the ICU at OHSU after an almost two week battle for his life with his family by his side when he was fifty-two years, eleven months and seven days of age. Surviving and left to honor his life are: His father Wayne; two daughters, Christina and Kari; two sons, Nickolas and Jacob; his brother Kim; two sisters Carlyn and Christy; nine grandchildren; many family members and those who have come to know and appreciate him where he has lived and worked. His mother Ethel preceded him in death. His Memorial Service will be Saturday, December 3, at 2:00 p.m. in Attrell's Newberg Funeral Chapel, a Golden Rule Funeral Home. Online condolences may be made at www.attrells.com
