To the Loftus family:
I am so sorry for your loss. I knew Kevin and his family while growing up in the Maverick Projects in East Boston. My brothers and I played cards, basketball, football, pool, swam in Boston Harbor, and hung on the street corners with the Loftus boys many years ago. I also worked with Kevin cleaning Fenway Park, shining shoes, selling newspapers, and shoveling snow. Kevin had a contagious smile and was liked by everyone. Kevin was always a very kind and caring person. The Loftus family was held in great esteem by everyone in the neighborhood. My heart goes out to you at this very sad time.
Sincerely,
Mike Perchard

To the Loftus family and Paula - My thoughts and prayers are with you at this very difficult time. I'm still in shock. I had the pleasure of working with Kevin at Gillette for 19 years up until his last day in the office. He will mis missed by all of us. He was a true gentlemen.
I also had the pleasure of working with Mary at Gillette. To you Mary, a big hug and my thoughts are with you.

To the Loftus Family and Paula Kelley
I'm sad to hear about the passing of Kevin. My thoughts and prayers are with you. I worked with Kevin at Gillette and will miss him. He and I shared the same farewell dinner, interestingly, at his first place of employment - Jury's. I'll remember him as bright, hard working and committed to Gillette - with a terrific wit and sense of humor.
God Bless

Mary, I'm truly stunned with this news of Kevin, and selfishly I've lost a gentleman friend. At this moment I remember very well the honesty of his wishes, his warm and friendly smile and sincerity of his handshake when I left The Gillette Company. God bless, Mary, to you, Kevin and all of his family.

Mary, I'm truly stunned with this news of Kevin. Selfishly, I've lost a true gentleman friend. I feel especially at this moment the sincerity of the last time I shook his hand before I left The Gillette Company. I can only give to you and all of Kevin's family at this moment my deepest feelings from the heart. God bless.

Hi Tony,
I just sent this little prayer I just wrote to Paula.. and I'd like
you and Mary and Kevin's family to have it too...
A true spirit with a magic tune,
Gods call sometimes comes too soon,
But in His will and in His way,
He called our tunesmith home today,
A Boston boy, whose jigs and reels,
Made people smile, made people feel
Alive...
With his big heart and his bright spark,
He lit the shadows in the dark,
Now lift his soul dear Lord above,
And play his tunes with Heaven's love...
And shine a light on those he left,
His flesh and blood, sad, bereft,
Oh let the healing soon begin
And may his magic tunes never end.
Play them loud those jigs and reels,
Make people smile, make people feel
Alive...
Lots of love to you and all of yours...

Kevin's swift departure is a stark reminder that we never know when God will call us home; but I do believe that He does what is best for our immortal souls. Loving prayers offered for you, Matt, Greg and Jim, as you grieve the loss of your dad. And in my prayers I also remember you Ray, Brendan,Tony,Tom, and Mary. May Our Blessed Mother comfort you as you mourn the loss of your brother.
Love and prayers for all the family.

My prayers are with all of his family at this time. I was a co-worker of Kevin's at Gillette and he was one of the kindest people I was fortunate enough to know. Let the good times with him live in your memory forever.
