My mom and grandmother bowled on Wednesday nights at Wayne Lanes for about 15 years and I can't ever remember a time when we weren't greeted by Kevin each week. He always wanted to make sure everyone was fine and dandy and if you weren't he was there to listen. To his family, may God bless you and keep you. Just remember, Kevin is in heaven now making sure everything is fine and dandy for the rest of us to join him someday. You raised your son to love everyone and give everyone a chance and for that he got the same in return. God bless.

Kevin is a great person though he is gone my memories of him I will cherish. He was always there when you needed help, jumping in with both feet never asking for anything in return. Thank you Kevin. May God bless you and keep you beside him where you belong and may God bless and look after your family and friends at this time of our loss.

Dear Pat Bill and Family - It is always so sad when bad things happen to such good people. It won't ever be the same without Kevin, but before long you will meet his memories with smiles rather than tears. I know how much coomfort you take in knowing that his grandparents and sister were there to greet Kevin when he appeared at the gate. Fondly, Sammye and Herb

I know that Kevin didn’t serve in the Army, Navy, Air Force or Marines, but I do believe he served his Country and Community above and beyond the call of duty and in my eyes he is a Hero and he deserves the United States Flag, the Key to the City and a Purple Heart.
Thank you both for having such a Miraculous, Wonderful Miracle that you call son and we call Hero and friend.

What an amazing person! Kevin has earned his angel wings. I will miss seeing him at church every Sunday, with his bright smile, making sure everything went according to plan. I pray that the family feels God's love and comfort as they go through this time of sorrow.
