Kevin “Mol” Molinari passed away suddenly at 63 years of age. He was the youngest of four sons born to Virginia and Donald Molinari (Deceased). Kevin was preceded in death by his brothers Jim and Steve. Kevin is survived by his sons Shane Patrick Molinari and Max Evan Molinari, Kevin’s brother Richard Molinari, his nephew John Molinari and many loving relatives.

Kevin attended Saint Cecilia Grammar School, “The Finest the Greatest, and the Best”, Sacred Heart High School, and Saint Mary’s College. It was in these early years that Kevin developed an unyielding faith and numerous friendship­s that have continued throughout his life. Upon graduation from college, Kevin returned to San Francisco going to work as a Director in the Park and Recreation Department while studying for his Real Estate License. Kevin’s keen mind for numbers and jovial personalit­y was the perfect combinatio­n for a successful career in Real Estate. While most Brokers would return to the office to calculate the numbers on a deal Kevin would run the numbers and know the possibilit­ies of a deal before he drove away from a building. Kevin mentored many friends and associates and followed Frank Sinatra’s advice in life by always doing it “My Way “.

As is the case for many native-born San Franciscan­s of his time Kevin was equally proud of his Irish and Italian heritage. Kevin excelled in athletics up through his college days. Kevin was a lifelong faithful 49er fan and personally attended numerous playoff and Super Bowl games in the 80s. While most of Kevin’s friends would get into the Stick through Mr. Smyk, Kevin stepped up and purchased season tickets. It was always a pleasure to get the invite to the game from Kevin for the proverbial round or two. No one wore a Hawaiian shirt with more flair than Kevin and no one enjoyed the King Henry Cut at the House of Prime rib more than Kevin.

In recent years Kevin continued to work on his investment­s but nothing was more important to Kevin than his beloved boys Shane and Max. Kevin’s unyielding commitment to Shane and Max’s wellbeing has been an honor to witness. Although you left us too soon Kevin, you’re bigger than life personalit­y and kindness will live with us forever.

Visitation will be on October 24, 2022, from 10:30 am to 11:20 in Saint Cecilia Church. A Funeral Mass will be celebrated at 11:30 am in Saint Cecilia’s Church, 2555 17th Ave San Francisco. In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to a Charity of your choice.
