My family would like to expend their sincere thoughts and prayers to your family for your great loss. We lost Kevin to this horrific disease on 3/9/09.

I have such fond memories of keeping score for our boys while they played baseball in Tierransanta.

May she finally rest in peace and your family move forward with life.
Sincerely,
Linda, Matt and Kelle Lyons
