Not sure what to say?

I am really sad to hear the news, Kevin was a great person and a great friend, my prayers go out to Kevin's family.

Kevin was on the plane bound for Vietnam in the early 70's that crashed in Alaska. I will never forget the AP photo of him carrying a passenger to safety after the crash. My cousin was not as fortunate to survive the crash, but every time that I ran into Kevin in Brigantine or Drexel Hill, we would remember that tragic day in November. I did not know Kevin at the time of the crash, but it came to my attention that he was a good friend of my husbands cousin. Such a nice guy.

My thoughts and prayers are with the entire Leyden family during this difficult time.
My condolences to all of Kevin's family and friends.

Ralph and I send our condolences to all of Kevin's family. We are very grateful to have known him and worked with him for many years on the Philadelphia Stock Exchange. He was a great person and will be missed by all!! Ralph and Ann Knott
