I am not a friend of the family but i too have experiened the death of a lovd one. Through my studies of the Bible i have learned that there will be a time when we will see our dead loved ones again. There will also be "no more death, sickness, or pain anymore". I hope that this information will comfort you like it has comforted me an dmy family.

I barely knew Kevin but I knew his daughter Ellen and his wife Linda from an organization. God Bless.

Our thoughts and prayers are with your family in your time of grief. May your loving memories bring you comfort. God bless...

Your name was mentioned today on Channel 13 news/Toledo. How you were a researcher at VT and a graduate of St Francis but your name was also mentioned because you were one of the "fallen" 1 year ago today. I hope your wife and children can feel your presence every day and know that you are looking over them from Heaven!

Dear Granata Family,
I am sorry for your loss. God bless him and his family.

I am deeply sorry for your loss. I would like to share with you scriptures that gives me hope about loved ones who have died. I encourage you to look up Revelation 21:3,4, John 5:28,29, Psalm 22:24, 1Peter 5:7. I hope you find comfort in these scriptures as I have.
