In November 2019, Kevin's Family brought Kevin's medals to the Templestowe RSL for safe keeping.
The old Sheahan home in Templestowe was to have been sold and the site turned into a restaurant, but according to the latest reports, the house has been moved to the rear of the large block on which it stands. The rest of the area will be subdivided, but it seems as if the house itself is safe. We hope to have further information on this house later.
