We can see him dancing now, and dropping to do the splits and then popping back up to shake it some more.
And motorcycle rides we would have never had without his generosity.
We miss you, Kevin. So glad you came into our lives.

Kevin (or as Maurice called him, the Big Mc) came into our lives with such enthusiasm and generosity and crazy fun. He lent us a car with enough leg room for a 6'5" person for a trip to Duluth and washed it before he gave it to us. Lent us his motorcycle because he knew how much fun it is to ride one. He danced and twirled like no one was watching until it was time to do the splits and then we all gasped every time,,,, and he knew we were watching. Never saw him that it didn't make us smile from the heart and he would kiss you on the lips if he loved you (both men and women). He brought Sinjin into our lives and Bob and Marie and we have such great memories of good times. Rest in Peace, Kevin. We love you.
