Not sure what to say?

August 25, 2023. Just saw Kevin on You Tube. Very brave and very sad. To be 54 making that video and knowing he has 5 children is just awful for any person. So brave to do the video and wish a world of happier days for his family.,DD from Philadelphia Pa.

Soar with the angels, mighty warrior, for you have surely earned it.

Amazing videos on YouTube. Amazing man Kevin. RIP Kevin and thanks for sharing your story.

Thank you for the ALS videos. Your consideration of others, to share and educate on ALS, is heroic and appreciated. Kevin brought humor and light to a debilitating disease. I hope he continues to shine in your hearts!
