Kevin Michael Whitaker

I played EverQuest with Kevin and still think of him to this day

Today was the first time I heard the news. At first, disbelief, then shock, then sadness, a deep and profound sadness. My name is Adam, and I also knew your brother in game rather well. So well in fact, that last year we planned to meet each other at the UT-Austin/A&M game.....as I'm a student at the University of Texas. Well one thing led to another, and I was unable to make it due to it being on Thanksgiving Weekend and plans I had with the family. I now regret that I had to cancel meeting...

Kent and Bart,
We are devastated by the tragic news. Your family has been in our prayers throughout the holidays. We are truly blessed to have known such a wonderful family in the short time that we were neighbors. The memories we all have will never be broken. We miss you and you will remain in our thoughts and prayers.
Love, The Adair family. Jim, Charl, Molly, and Emma

I'd like to give my warmest wishes to the family and friends who are dealing with this horrible loss. Take refuge in knowing that they are in better places and will see all of us another day.

Hello... I was not a close friend to Kevin, but I did have the honor to know him from EverQuest. He was always very kind and generous, and always had time to listen. I feel for your loss... Two years ago, when I was 21, I lost my sister. Below, I am copying the lyrics to one of the songs I sang at her funeral... I hope that the words will help you as they did me.

It's paradise here where the sun meets...

I am so sorry to hear about what happened. My prayers are with Kevin and his family.

You will be missed kevin.. You touched MANY more lives than most people know.. I met you in a video game but felt I knew you thru the constant tells that we did. I hope that you find peace.

Kevin, you will be dearly missed by everyone who knew you. You were a great friend and also a great cousin. I am glad to have gotten to know you through the family. My prayers are with you and your family

This news saddens me deeply. Kevin was such a great person, he inspired everyone who had the pleasure of dealing with him. I pray for those left behind, since Kevin's absense leaves a huge hole in the heart of everyone he ever met.
