Janine, we were so very sorry to hear of Kevin´s passing. We have so many good memories of Kevin through High School, College days, and then with you. He had just reached out and told me to get in touch with you all next time we were down for Keeneland. Sending hugs and prayers of comfort and strength to you and your family.
