I did not know Kevin personally. I only met him when visiting my mother at her mausoleum when I was visiting from Atlanta, last year. Looking down, I saw he was there. I thought what a young man. So now when I go home like I always do when I get there, I visit my mother first thing, I say hi Kevin!

It is hard losing someone...God Bless your family
