I've known Kevin since we moved into Middletown. Kevin, Glenn, and myself grew up together. We played baseball in Middletown, rode motorcycles everywhere. I just found out about his passing. I'd like to celebrate his life. He found love and was a father. God Bless.

Kevin... You were the greatest, most hardworking, loving, and happy man I have ever known. Mike and I miss you so much already and will forever. I thank God everyday for putting you in our lives and I thank you for loving us and my mom with your whole heart! You made my mom the happiest she has ever been these past 10 years and I will be eternally grateful. I will miss you "gettin-r-done" everyday, your laugh, your stories, making things with you, fishing with you, and all the things we all used to do together. They will be cherished in my heart FOREVER . You fought a hard battle and showed me what true strength is. I love you with my heart, we love you with all our hearts and are devastated you are no longer here with us. Please watch over us all
Love,
Carly & Mike
