I have only known Kevin during the turmoil of his courageous battle with MS. It was uncomfortable, at least, for him and down right painful much of the time... but he was strong, patient and forgiving. Whenever he was asked what could be done for him he always reminded, only that which he could not do himself. Tears are shed for family and friends, a sigh for Kevin. I know he is at peace. I miss you my friend.

When I heard about Kevin's passing it caused a heavy heart for Kevin was a good friend. Kevin and I had many a debate on many nights once the music was turned off and those front doors locked at the end of the end of the night at the General Store
With our love for so many different types of music our opinions went back and forth but never did we disagree! Kevin was just that way, he challenged me and I'd challenge him but we always agreed. I was fortunate enough to see his stars shine at the planetarium. Kevin is a talent that will be missed dearly this I do know.
RIP my friend.
