Kevin Ebbert Memorial Fund

Kevin R. Ebbert was born in 1980 and grew up in Arcata. As a boy he loved backpacking, rafting, and drawing. As a young adult he played Ultimate Frisbee, was an accomplished musician, loved learning, and was an avid reader. Kevin grew into a caring man who practiced his values, lived by his ideals, and was committed to helping others. Kevin graduated from Arcata High School, received a bachelor's degree in music from UC Santa Cruz, and became an active duty US Navy SEAL and corpsman. He hoped to build on his training as a corpsman to pursue a career as a physician. Kevin married Ursula (Jansson) Ebbert in 2011. The couple shared a love of the outdoors and enjoyed family gatherings. Kevin was killed in action in Afghanistan in 2012. Funds will be given in honor of Kevin to organizations that support education, protecting the outdoors, medical care, wounded warriors, and the families of the fallen. (2012)
