Kevin was a kind person who always wanted the best for everyone around him. He was quick to compliment and was a dependable friend. Rest In Paradise Kevin.

So deeply sorry to hear of Kevin's passing. Kevin was a kind soul that just wanted to be included in the conversation. I loved talking sports with him and hearing him boast about the Yankees or Notre Dame and taking every opportunity he had to knock on the Mets. I will miss him.

Kevin´s Mom & family! I am so so sorry for this sudden loss. I am a lifelong friend of Kevin. He always brought me food from every place he worked, followed me as I moved out of Fords, and whenever we ran into each other at local establishments I always made sure to buy him a beer and shot of blackberry brandy. He loved posting pics of the food he cooked for him & his mom, and always shared how he had to take care of her with his fathers´ passing! Having two boys myself that play Baseball, Kevin always made it a point to show me all his baseball cards and stacks that he had and share stats with me... He knew his #´s inside and out and could recall the final scores of games from the 70´s. Though we were always just friends, he always said I was his "queen" and he was going to marry me one day! Facebook kept us connected, and I am so shocked & saddened by this news! May you now be the "king" in Heaven Kevin, and watch over your mom, those Yanks, and you know I love pizza and a good burger. Rest easy
