Kevin has been a dear kindred spirit of mine since high school. Over the years we have kept in close touch, either during our weekly lunches or by phone several times a week when I was residing outside of the Cincy area. Man oh man what a loss in my life now that my dear friend has passed! Kev it was always great being on the road with you, but glad to say I hope I won't be joining you on this trip for awhile! Love you man!

I have known Kevin since the start of his career. He became the broker for my Uncle who had little interests in investments but knew he had to do something to prepare for retirement in about 25 years. Kevin was very patient and understanding and did everything he could to make my uncle's portfolio a success and he did so.I interfaced with Kevin at my Uncle's request because he just did not understand money matters. I was so impressed with Kevin that I moved my account to him. Though I was very hands-on with my account, Kevin understood my needs and offered advice when he thought appropriate.I recommended him to many because of his knowledge, honesty, understanding of individual needs and friendly, professional nature.
Kevin and you and the family will be in my prayers. May he rest in peace.

Dear Mark, Dave Susan and Erin:
I am so very sorry to hear of your loss. I had the good fortune of working closely with Kevin at The Jewish Hospital for over five years, and will miss his smile, sense of humor, and kindness. Kevin was a special person, and I am blessed to have known him.
May you find comfort in knowing that a special angel is watching over you, now.
Our sincere condolences,
Jay and Patty Uihlein

Where do I start? The house on Kinsey during U of C days? Kev was always up for crazy and wild times as a young man and that didn't change much as he aged. We will all miss his spirit of adventure and good humor.

I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. Kevin has been my financial adviser for many years. After I lost my husband he told me he would continue to take care of my finances the same as he would his mother. He was always a kind gentle man. Proud of his family.
He will be greatly missed. My prayers are with his family.

Susan, Erin, Mark and Dave I am so sorry for your loss. Losing Kevin is a great loss to us all. I have never felt so welcome and appreciated as an employee until I came to work with Kevin and Scott 8 years ago. Our relationship soon turned from a working relationship to friendship. I will miss the surprise lunches and especially "Pie Day" that Kevin always treated us to. Kevin will be greatly missed and always remembered for the joy and value he added to my life.
