Dear Kyle & Robin Kitchen & Family,

I am sooooo sorry to hear of Connor's tragic passing. Even though I didn't know Connor personally, he seemed to be a very nice young man. I know Connor is now safely in Heaven as one of God's very special angels. Don't think of as gone, just think of him as safe from any sickness & harm. Connor will want you to keep your heads up and keep smiling. One day you will be reunited with Connor as a family forever. Connor will be missed by everyone who was close to him myself included and also his teachers, classmates, and friends at Lane Middle School.

Forever you will be in my thoughts and prayers.

You have my heartfelt sympathy

May Connor Robert Kitcen
REST IN PEACE
