Kevin, I will never forget our friendship. You were my best buddy from 1966. We seen a lot together and had many laughs and fun times growing up. I don´t know where the time went or why the Lord took you home so early in life. I only know that it left a void for those of us who cared. See you in the future old Pal!

Kevin was my Pal for 42 years. We were just eleven when we became friends. I can say from the depths of my soul, Kevin was a most loyal and trusted friend. Take him or leave him, he was who he was, and his own man. We never had a fight or disagreement that couldn't be talk out. In his last year he fought bravely to overcome the desease that eventually took him. He loved his family, his wife Robin, and his daughter Marykate were always who he was thinking about. Rest easy brother, we'll be together again!
