My thoughts and prayers go out to the family and friends. My brother and I lived in Loma Vista at the same time Kevin did and a group of us used to hang out together just having fun. We lost touch and the years have past, but I will always keep the memories of good times spent with Kevin.

It is always we, those left behind who will miss him. But he does live on in our memories. When we were kids living in Loma Vista. We used to swim almost every day. Playing octopus and shark. I always enjoyed seeing him, over the last few years. For his children, and family. I am sorry for your loss. His rich sense of off-the-wall humor WILL be missed.
