I just wanted to let any family or friends of Kevin know that this guestbook will close permanently on March 17th, 2006. I have set-up a permanent website for all of us to share memories, light a candle, place video, pictures, poems and letters to Kevin. The web address is www.in-memory-of.com



When you arrive at the site, on the left hand column where it says search for: put in Kevin Stone. It will then bring you to his site address, then just click on it.



There are already several entries, some photo's and lit candles to memorialize Kevin. Please email me with any questions or concerns at the e-mail address listed here. I hope you enjoy coming to his special website dedicated for all of us who keep Kevin alive in our hearts and memories.



God Bless You all and remember Kevin brought so many of us together as friends and family that it too is another blessing Kevin gave us.

My deepest condolences to Kevin's family. I had the pleasure of working with “Stoney” for many years. He was an incredible man with amazing energy and a carefree spirit. I enjoyed working with him and knowing him as a friend. He had an impact on all who met him. I will never forget the wonderful time we had at S&P together. I hope that as time passes the pain of your loss will be replaced with all of wonderful memories of Kevin.

Kristin, Honorato informed me today of Kevin's passing. Christine and I want to send our very deepest condolences to you and your son. I will always remember Kevin as a happy person from our high school days. I know his marriage to you and the joys of fatherhood contributed to that happiness. God bless you and know that you are being remembered fondly by friends.

Dear Adam, Natie, Auntie Ritalee, Kristin, Baby John and Uncle Kevin's Family,



Jake and I are really sorry to hear about Uncle Kevin. He was a really good uncle. Mom and I watched the film of me coming home from the hospital and Uncle Kevin was so funny he was afraid to hold me, but he did and then he kept stroking my hair, someone told him he looked like he was trying to make my hair stick up straight and he said he was just admiring how beautiful I was. When Adam was born, I finally had a first cousin and a best friend. Adam and Nathan are my only first cousins, so I am so glad you were a part of our family and that you are my Uncle. Mom is going to really miss you, you were the only person close to a real brother she said she ever had. Dad, Jake and me too will miss you. I never really lost anyone close to me before that I knew so well and it is very hard to think you are really gone. I will be there for Adam and Nathan whenever they need me and Jake will be to. I Love you and Miss You. Sorry for your loss Adam, Nathan, Auntie Ritalee, Kristin, Baby John and all the family and friends you have.



Love,

Ashley and Jake Sanphy (Your Niece and Nephew)

Kevin was the eternal optimist. Full of spirit and good energy. I know that there are no words that can express the loss. I do know that he is in the hearts and minds of many and always carried a brightness that no one else could. I am so sorry for your loss.

Whether we were playing softball or having a conversation in his office, Kevin always had something positive to give. You couldn't walk away from him without a smile on your face and I'll never forget him for that.

Kevin was a rare and talented person with so much to give. His view on life was always uplifting and positive no matter what adversity may be faced. In many ways, he changed my world and showed me how to win and laugh in life. His trust and love was like a brother to me. He will live on in our hearts and minds always.

I will always remember Kevin as a man of endless optimism, the kind that rubbed off on everyone in the room. He had a friendly smile for everyone he met, and was always the first to lend a hand if someone needed help. He will be missed.



My deepest sympathy to Kristin, John, Adam, Nathaniel, and the entire Stone family.

I had the pleasure of working and traveling with Kevin while we were both employed at S&P. He was a remarkable man who had the unique quality of always seeing the glass is 3/4 full. He routinely went out of his way to make sure the job got done and done correctly, while having a great time in the process. Kevin will be missed, my thoughts and prayers go out to his family.

Through our many years of working together, Kevin was a guiding visionary, an enthusiastic entrepreneur, a great collaborator and a seemingly inexaustible source of creativity and encouragement. The evidence of his many contributions to our company live on. His spirit and zest for progress will forever leave an impression on me, as I imagine it would all those who had the good fortune of spending time in his company. My thoughts and prayers are with all those who Kevin leaves behind, his family and friends - children, with deepest sympathies.

Kristin,

Although I've only known your family a short time in caring for you at Boston Medical Center, I developed a bond that I can see many people had. Being able to be a part of your lives has been a blessing and I can only hope you feel the same. Caring for families such as yours is what makes nursing worth while. My thoughts and prayers are with you!

My thoughts and prayers are with Kevin's family and children. "Stoney" was a gentle man who put his whole heart into everything he did. He never let obstacles get him down, and most of all he tried never to let others down. I will always remember his energy, humor, and grace under pressure.

Dear Kristen and Baby John, My heart aches for you, as Kevin was so young and you both had so much of your lives ahead. Kevin was always so cheerful and optimistic and so pleasant when we would see you in the parking lot. Jim and I will not be able to attend the services, but do want you to know that you are in our prayers. If there is anything that we can do, please come knock on the door.Love, Ruth and Jim (neighbors)

I was fortunate to work with Kevin at Standard & Poor's in Boston in the late 1990s. He was a dynamic, bright, energetic person who always had a kind word and a new idea. His optomism and energy were infectious. I miss working and playing softball with him. He was one-of-a-kind.

I had the pleasure of working with Kevin for almost five years, and he was such a joy to be around: His ready smile and Can Do spirit were inspiring to those of us who relied on his great skills.

I am so deeply hurt by the tragic loss of Kevin. I knew him for thirty years and he has helped me in so many ways. I can remember being ten years old and walking down the street with Kevin. We had so much fun growing up back in the 1970's & 80's and our friendship was strong right up until 2005.

Kevin had positive energy, he looked for the good in everything and everyone.



This was a special friend, a lifetime friend that brought so many good memories. He was a caring man who took the time to help you anyway he could.



Kevin was a huge part of my life and he was also good friends with my brothers Jimmy and Gary.



Life won't be the same without Kevin, we will miss him so much. Kevin, I know you're up there and if you hear me, I know you want me to stop cryin, but it's hard man, cause you were like a brother to me, and I loved ya man.

I am so very sorry to hear of Kevin's passing. It was great to have had him as a colleague and friend. Hie energy and enthusiasm were infectious. It seemed he was always whistling here at S & P. If we hit some bumps in the road at the office, he'd say "It's all good, my friend". And with Kevin, it was. He certainly lived his short, precious life to the fullest. We'll all sorely miss him.

Dear Kristin and Baby Johnny,



Words alone cannot express my sympathy for your loss. Kevin was such a wonderful person, a great father, a terrific uncle to my two children Ashley and Jake. He was a great person to know and to love. He always was so happy when he was with you and Johnny, I remember how happy a family you all were with Adam, Nathan, John, Kevin and yourself when we got to see you at Nathans birthday party last year. You, John and the entire Stone family are in my prayers. May the memories you have made, be the life of Kevin that you keep alive forever. God Bless You!

Kevin was a groovy guy. He was a bright light wherever he went. I loved his laugh, his song selections (SONG OF THE DAY!) and his strong sense of being who he was instead of who others wanted him to be. Rock on, big guy.

Kevin was a wonderful soul. When he worked at Published Image, he made work a more pleasant place to be. "Sunny" is the first thing that comes to mind when I think of him. Every morning, my day would begin by hearing Kevin whistling or humming one of his favorite rock tunes. Made it a great way to start the day! His bright spirit and great sense of humor will be missed.
