It is with a heavy heart, that I send this message. I just found out. I knew Kevin from 1969 until the present. He was not just my lawyer, but a good friend. My thoughts and my prayers go out to his family and friends. God bless!

I have a lifetime of fond memories of Kevin going back to our younger days when we sailed his father's boat. He was a good friend and always enjoyable to be with. He was unique and will be missed by all who knew him.

I first met Kevin 62 years ago. We were students in the same dormitory at Villanova University, in Pennsylvania. We became roommates the next year, and have remained friends ever since. My deepest condolences to his sister, Tricia, daughters, Meghan, and Kerry, and his extended family. I know he will be missed by us all. I'm sorry I'm not able to attend his celebration of life, but I'll tip a beer to him. Aloha!

I was saddened to learn of Kevin's passing. Our paths crossed many times as young "activist" in the new Hampton Young Democratic Club in 1969; our love for political involvement continued for over fifty years. So much fun to be in Kevin's company theses many years.
