Kevin David Dwyer, 31, of Des Plaines, a computer consultant, died Sunday, March 5, in Holy Family Medical Center after an apartment fire. Born in Peoria, Mr. Dwyer was raised in Eureka, Ill., where he graduated from Eureka High School in 1987. He obtained a bachelor of science degree in computer science from Illinois State University, Normal, in 1992. Mr. Dwyer worked for several computer consulting companies in the Chicago area, most recently for PMG Computer Consultants. As a teenager, Mr. Dwyer spent many years volunteering at Teens Encounter Christ in Peoria, where he mentored other teenagers. A resident of Des Plaines since 1995, Mr. Dwyer also was a volunteer at Habitat for Humanity in the northwest suburbs. “He would have liked to correct all the world’s injustices,” said his father, Edward. Other survivors include his mother, Ann; and three brothers, E. Patrick, Michael and John. A service will be held Friday in Eureka.
