Not sure what to say?

I miss you Kevin, and I wish you were still here so that you could see Fallon and my kids growing up. The games they play remind me of how imaginative we used to be. I've moved back to Lake Oswego. It's hard knowing my best friend isn't just down the street anymore.

I wish we would have talked more about what you were going through, but I know that's in the past now. I'm still finding new, positive ways in which your life has influenced me. One day I will tell my kids about all of...

I am reminded once again, on May 4th about the passing of one amazing individual. Kevin. I know you are in a better place. I often visit you on the hill. We miss you. Our thoughts and prayers are with you Bunny, Rich, and Becky. xo Linda and Dan

Kevin was my first babysitter. I'll always remember riding bikes around LO with him and learning to stay motivated when tired of riding by always thinking "home is just around the corner," he'd say when, in fact, it wasn't! He'll be missed.

To the Cronk family,

I am very sorry to learn of this tragic news. I knew Kevin at Tufts. We haven't been in touch in quite awhile, which I suppose is why I did not learn of this until recently. I feel lucky to have known Kevin for even a short time. Knowing him was like being a part of a great secret. Though he was often quiet on the outside, there was such a fantastic person behind that. His sense of humor was amazing. I really enjoyed listening to him tell a story or...

Dan and I just got home from a fabulous two week vacation in the Caribbean. Jamie, our daughter phoned this morning with the tragic news of the loss of our son's best friend, since he was two years old. I am so sad that we missed his memorial service. However, my memories of him will live with me forever.

Kevin was like a son to me as well. I will never forget how I had to lure him over when he was probably three years old. He didn't feel comfortable about leaving his mother,...

dear cronk family,
i was so sad to hear this news. i remember kevin when we were very little. he used to follow becky and i around the house as we tried to figure out what trouble we would get into next. your sons spirit will live on in lots of people whether they knew him their whole life or for just moments, i hope that god brings you comfort in your time of need. there are no words that will express my deepest sympathies for all of you.

Rich and Bunnie~ Words can not explain our sorrow! You will always be in our prayers and Kevin will never be forgotten.

Rich and Bunnie, we are so sorry to hear of the loss of Kevin. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and Becky.

Bunnie and Richie,

I talked to Kevin everyday for 5 years and I know how much he appreciated everything you did for him. From letting us co-opt your basement to rearranging your living room twice a week. I want you to know that his appreciation was not alone. Your sacrifices never went unrecognized.

Kevin will be in my mind everday that I walk this earth. As a parent myself I cannot imagine your pain nor say I know what you are going through. We will always be...
