Not sure what to say?

As a nurse I took care of Kevin for 8 years at UMC. I spent many hours over the years talking to Kevin about life and death and everything in between. Kevin was a very unique individual and loved to tell a story. He often spoke of his family especially his Uncle and truly loved them. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers. Kevin fought this dreaded disease with everything in him. He amazed me and I hope he is at peace.

As a Respiratory Therapist at UMC, I cared for Kevin and his brother David for many years. Kevin will always be one of my most unforgetable characters. Even when he felt awful he could talk your ear off. I always felt (and the wording of his obit mirrors this) that he was the Eveready Bunny of the CF patient population. 3NE will be a much quieter place without him.
Love and peace upon you Kevin.

I am very sorry to hear of Kevin's passing. I did not know Kevin but my brother Robert did. Robert too has Cystic Fibrosis and is 39. Robert had only good things to say of Kevin. Sometimes they would be at UMC at the same time for the "tune-up" as Rob calls it. It was nice when you knew someone else on the floor was in when you were in too. CF really takes a toll on a family in many many ways. May he rest in peace. My prayers are with your family.

I knew Kevin only for the last couple of years. He was a courageous and very decent person. He will be missed. JG
