Mr and Mrs smith, I am very sorry to hear about the passing of Kevin. I was out of the country and didn't learn about until Sunday. I thought it was a mistake. I will dearly miss Kevin and the countless times he had you sing ba ba black sheep. he was a young man that knew what he wanted and was well loved at Beatty. He had the most wonderful giving parents that any could want.I can't imagine how you must feel but I hope God fills the deepest sorrow and pain that you may have. May God strengthen both of you.

sincerely iphillrenepi White

Dear Joanne and Kevin and boys - my sincere sympathy on the recent passing of your beloved son and brother. I've had the pleasure of meeting Kevin once at his g-mother's funeral and one hot summer morning, when Kevin's dad wheeled him up Bay Ave., and paid a visit - a memorable one I might add. The caring and love was so very evident and know God was well pleased with the love and caring shown to your son. God Bless you and your family, Love, Ave (Glancey)

Dearest Joanne, Kevin, Colin, Matthew and all of Kevin's family and friends:

We are so deeply sorry for your unexpected loss of Kevin. As a family, you have exemplified the true meaning of love, dedication and devotion. You are all so remarkable in your love, patience and inclusion of Kevin in all of your families' events. I will always think of Kevin when I hear the Sound of Music's "The hills are alive". May God Bless and comfort with peace in all of your happy memories.

Kevin and my son Michael were classmates at Elwyn PreSchool and had many happy times in a loving place that supported our precious children. Kevin was so loved by so many people...his family, his teachers, his friend and many others during his time on earth. May Kevin find peace and joy in his heavenly home. My thoughts and prayers are with his family at this sad time. May you find strength in each other

Dearest Kevie,
Thank you for giving me and Uncle Mike so much joy, laughter and love. We were truly blessed when God chose our family to be a part of your life. Please thank God too for showing us the unconditional love of your Mom and Dad, as well as your brothers and extended family. You and they taught me acceptance, affection, commitment, humility, selflessness and so much more.

Maya Angelou said "I think a hero is really any person intent on making this a better place for all people." Kevin, you and your family are my heroes.
With deepest love,
Aunt Mary

This has been the saddest week of our family lives as we give the child who came into our extended family to teach us all life lessons. Without uttering a word we learned love, patience, humor, acceptance, the joy of music and so much more I cannot put into words.His parents also taught us great lessons as they went thru each day giving him the utmost care for 34 years.As we process this great loss we know Kev's resting in God's Glory among his loved one's who went before him. We were Blessed to meet his amazing teachers at Elwyn over the years. What love and care they give their students. We thank them and want them to know they are appreciated. Kevin was Blessed with two brothers who gave Him the love and laughter any sibling could share. I feel Honored to call him my God Child. I am a better person because of the lessons you shared. We will miss you more than you know. Rest in Peace as you live on in our Hearts.

Dear Kevin, Joanne and boys. Although I've only met your son twice, I know the deep love you as a family have shared with Kevin - it was evident in meeting him. God's plan is never easy but with your deep faith, I know he will sustain you as a family. Please know that you are all in my prayers and know as a family you will draw strength from one another. Love, Ave
