Our Dearest Friend #1, It has been our honor and our pleasure to not only have known you, but to have called you our dear friend. Somewhere along the way we adopted you into our family and forever with us is where you'll remain. You're gone far too soon, but knowing that you're early for everything, you're probably getting ready for hunting season. So save us some deer meat and the next round of Miller Lite is for you.

Kevin was one of the nicest guys I worked with at EBRSO. He was honest, kind, caring, smart, and witty. He treated everyone with compassion and put others at ease. I will never forget his smile, his laugh, or his sense of humor. My life is so much richer, for having known Kevin. My thoughts and prayers are with Kevin and his family.
