Our ages are over 80. This date, 19 February 2022, I am the only remaining uncle of the Howell G. Williams siblings that knew Kevin from birth to his passing on to be with the Lord, God Almighty. Both my wife Heide and me had a close love for him as a very loving and soul-touching nephew. We miss him still, but are convinced his passing was necessary. Earth's loss is Heavens gain. May God bless all his family especially those who are still survivors.

My sincere sympathy goes out to the entire family. Although it was many years ago that I last saw Kevin, his spirit left a lasting impression on my heart. I rejoice in knowing that I will see him again in God's time.

Dear Diane and children plus my brother Ed Williams and family:
Heide and I wish to express our sincere sympathy in the passing of our beloved Kevin. Having watched him grow up in stages, since he was a baby to when we visited him in Palmerton, and then to the time we last saw him in Gnadden Heutten, our times together always reflected his love and caring about others. We prayed for his healing and now God has answered with eternal healing.
Love, Uncle Art and Heide

It was a pleasure knowing such a fine man. Between actually being a student at PHS and then working in the district during the summers I was in college, I got to know Kevin very well. A better man you couldn't find. So sorry to hear of his passing, although he is in such a better place.
With deepest sympathies to the entire Williams family.
Sincerely,
