Dearest Barile family:
It's probably been thirty (30) years since I last saw Kevin; we were still in college and Kevin was with his father. Kevin was a good friend in high school and I fondly remember riding in his "monster-truck" Land Cruiser. I am very sorry to hear of Kevin's passing and extend my deepest condolences. Kevin and his father were friendly, kind, and generous.
Sincerely,
Ernie Bosch

To Sandi, Laura, Dana and family: it was with the deepest shock and sadness that Bill and I learned of Kevin's death. Since that day, we have shared our Kevin memories--of the curly haired little boy next door that babysat Todd and paid him to go to sleep, of delightful sailing afternoons with Bill, of the young man expressing love and concern for his mom, and of Kevin and Bill working together. He was so very special to our family. We are grateful to have shared the moments that our journeys crossed. May God grant you his comfort and his peace. And may God bless Kevin. We love you, Bill and Phyllis Lax

Kevin was our neighbor & friend. We were the "Chippewa Club" on Davis Islands...the Copelands, Nances, Korols and the Freemans. Kevin joined us for backyard dinners & parties and was such a nice guy. He was quiet but witty, and we enjoyed his company. His dog, Gracie was his constant companion. He will certainly be missed by all of us. May God's peace and comfort be with your family now and in the weeks to come.

I am so sorry to hear of Kevin's death. I didn't know him, but his dad was my doctor and delivered my last son. He was a wonderful and caring doctor and stayed right with me through a troubled birth. May God give you peace in knowing that Kevin is with is father, and that you will see them both again.

We have been working with Kevin for the last four years in obtaining a cell tower on our property, Plantation Management in Venice. Kevin was a pleasure to work with, always upbeat, responsive to our concerns, and energetic. We are very sorry to hear of his passing.
