Kevin grew up in Oak Lawn and still has family residing in the Chicagoland area. His late parents, Ted and Millie, were well-known amongst other Oak Lawn residents, especially to parishioners of St. Linus Church where they were very active members.
Cronin and REO Speedwagon are also being featured at the Oak Lawn Public Library in the “Rock N’ Roll Legends of Oak Lawn” exhibit, in collaboration with photographer AJ Roccaforte, located in the local history room on the second floor of the library.
