Kevin Lee

Odom

Kevin Lee Odom, age 54, passed away on November 11, 2026, at Grandview in Birmingham, Alabama. Kevin was born on September 14, 1972, in Poplarville, Mississippi, to Elby and Donnis Grace Ladner Odom.

Kevin was a hardworking man with a remarkable ability to do just about anything he put his mind to. As an owner and operator of his own heating and air conditioning company for nearly 40 years, he took great pride in his work and everything he accomplished. A true jack of all trades, Kevin was gifted with his hands and could build, repair, and figure out just about anything. He even built his own home and his parents' home and once owned and operated his own barber shop. There was very little Kevin couldn't do when he set his mind to it.

Outside of work, Kevin found his greatest enjoyment in the outdoors and on the water. Whether saltwater fishing, spending a day at the river, cruising on his boat, or riding jet skis, he was happiest enjoying the water and making memories. He loved traveling whenever he could, especially trips to Gulf Shores and the Smoky Mountains. Kevin was also an avid coin collector and took pride in caring for his land and family property. He had a special place in his heart for his nieces and nephews and loved being around children. His beloved parrot, Faith, was especially dear to him and was loved just like one of his own children. He also cherished his dog, Bailey. Above all, Kevin was a kindhearted, funny, and generous man who was always willing to lend a helping hand to his family and those he loved. He will be remembered as a wonderful son, brother, uncle, and friend whose many talents, good humor, and love for life left a lasting impression on those fortunate enough to know him.

Kevin is preceded in death by his parents, Elby and Donnis Odom; paternal grandparents, Albert and Irene Odom; and maternal grandparents, Lloyd and Eva Ladner.

Those left to cherish his memory include his sister, Kaye (Curtis) Rester; brother, Gary (Pam) Odom; nephew, Austin (Faith) Rester; niece, Amy (Stephen) Godfrey; nephew, Andrew Odom; great-nephew, Thomas Rester; great-nieces, Genevieve Rester, Blair Godfrey, and Bristol Godfrey; along with many other beloved family members and friends.
