Kevin was one in a million. We had the pleasure of his company through many years of his helping us with several mortgages, and refinancing. He was the lifelong friend of my boss Frank Pontillo who referred us to Kevin . He came to our house so many times over the years and we always felt like we were with a friend!! He was so kind, smart and just an all around great guy. He spoke of his family and friends with so much love, and was a genuine person. Heaven has welcomed a new angel. You will be missed but remembered forever !

Kevin was a truly magnificent and unique human being. In every way, he was larger than life. We did business together for 30 years. He was my go to guy. He spoke at seminars I conducted. He was certifiably brilliant. He was without equal in his industry. We went to 2 Wing Bowls together. Over time, we became great friends. He fought a great fight until the very end. He was an inspiration to all who knew him. He was a magnificent family man to a totally wonderful family. My condolences to all of his family and legion of friends. I was proud and honored to know him. He will be remembered always. God Rest His Soul.

My condolences to Vicki, your daughters and the whole ODonnell family, Kevin will surely be a huge missing part in your family for years to come. Ill always remember you as a kind man, compassionate and a wonderful friend. I know youve help me several times. I hope that sometimes I was able to help you with our talks. I remember we would sit and talk for a couple hours and knowing that you had to get back to your work we would laugh and talk alittle longer. The love for Vicki and your daughters shown through in your huge smile when we spoke about them. Youre in a better place, youre out of pain and youre looking down upon your family with a huge smile and I know your big protective arms will keep them safe. May God appreciate the good you have done for others on this earth. May you rest easy now Kevin.

My thoughts and prayers are with Vickie and the girls and the entire O'Donnell family. I am so very very sorry for your loss. I have so many happy memories of Kev, like the time we spent half the night driving on the Garden State Parkway trying to find Ed and John at the shore house and I kept missing the exit and he kept making me laugh always making the best of things , He was a truly good man and had the ability to make people laugh and be happy whenever he was around. The world is a much sadder place without him, Love and Peace Kev, Donna
