To Kevin's family and friends: I have been wondering for several years what happened to Kevin. We had been close friends in the 70's and 80s and then lost touch for a while . I ran into Kevin again at Lowes around 2009 and I would always look for him so that we could catch up on things that were going on in our lives. I lost my phone and his number and was unable to contact him. I came across his obituary accidentally today when I typed in the "sugar bowl" in Tuckerton and thanks to Donna Brownell post his name came up. Coincidentally, Kevin worked at New Lisbon developmental center with Donna's father Dan Redmond in the late 70's. Kevin did have a fascination with rattlesnakes. While living in New Gretna in a muti -family residence, one of his pet rattlesnakes escaped. He never found it. Kevin was always a friendly guy who remained optimistic even when life was not. He will be missed. Belated condolences to his family.

To the Cranmer Family: I am so sorry for your loss. I met Kevin on my first day of 5th grade at Tuckerton Elementary School in Miss Browne's class. He was the first classmate from the BIG school to befriend me. We became fast friends and I always had a soft spot in my heart for him. We ate lunch together in school, at the "Sugar Bowl", at the Tuckerton Diner and at his house or Billy Peppler's. I went all through school with him and graduated with him from SRHS in 1970. I saw him intermittently over the years, but had not seen him for maybe 15 years, until he started working at Lowe's and Michael and I ran into him their. It was like we never lost touch, as times are with a real friend. I'm grateful that he turned up in my life again, albeit for too short of a time. R.I.P. KEVIN, I will always think of you as a friend. You always had such a great sense of humor, a kind and giving heart, was respectable at all times and was ALWAYS very good to my brother Tommy. That is plenty good for me. THANKS Kev. Donna Redmond Brownell
