It's been a year since I found out you left this Earth and went up to heaven. There's not a day that goes by that I don't think about you and all of the great memories we've had. I miss you so much, Dad. I think back and wonder what it would've been like had you done so well in life. You would've still been around to watch your granddaughter grow up and graduate college! I wish April was able to know who her grandfather was, but she will once her time comes. I'll tell her about you and show her pictures of you. I'm so glad you got to meet her when she was born. It made me smile when you held her knowing that you loved her as much as you did everyone else in the family. I love you, Dad. I will see you when it's my time and we can watch Ohio State Football games together again! May you rest well up there for the rest of eternity! = ]<3

I met Kevin several times through his brother Paul. Kevin gave me his phone number and told me he would come help me anytime I needed. Kevin had a big heart and wanted to help others. Kevin is a special man! May god bring peace to the family in their time of need.
