Can´t believe it´s twenty years! I´m still playing and enjoying playing bass again. I love telling band members stories from back in the day and how no one sang Robert Plant like you did! If there´s a Rock and Roll Heaven, I know who´s singing lead! Miss you!

Forever loved and missed, Little Brother ~ miss our times.

Hey buddy! As I´m sure you know, I picked up playing the bass again after a 45 year hiatus, lol. I´m playing in a band and can´t help but harken back to our early days as our version of rock stars. We were young and full of energy! Now, not as much, but then again, I´m glad I don´t look like Keith Richards
Rock on in Heaven, Kevin!

Hi Kevin! I'm sitting here reading the latest entries in your book> If you are watching me you can see the tears that are flowing. THEY are tears of love, happiness and sorrow. LOVE for the way everyone felt about you, HAPPINESS because you no longer suffer from pain and SORROW because you are no longer with us. I remember that last day I saw you when I moved to tennessee, the way we were laughing at my house, when I had to get you home because you forgot to bring you medicine (again). And finally when i was leaving how I made my wife and kids wait while I went oveer to say good-bye. Kevin yuo were such a beautiful person and so many people were lucky to know you> I told Iris the other day that hardly a day goes by wkwn I don't think about you. your friend forever pete oneill

Dearest Kevin

Happy Birthday in Heaven sure you

had a great beautiful day. Must have

been a great party for a great person like you. I remember the day

I got the call you became an Angel I

had to sit down for a little while.

I felt so sad then I said he is an

Angel now with our Lord Jesus. I

felt sad also because you left us

alone but then again I said to myself your mom and God took you by

your hand to carry you home. Kev

maybe God will allow you to visit your children and family in there

dreams so they know you are ok. Let

them know it's ok for us to miss you. We can't see you but you are always with us. In my mind I still

picture you the day you came to the

house to lend us your tool for our

pool explaining to us how to do it.

I still see you by your van with the

kids, with your long hair and a smile that was like the sun. Kevin

thank you for being my friend and all that you did for my mom, sister

and myself. God Bless you and yes

we will always miss your face even

if you have never left us.

Love you always

Keep shining for me

Love Iris

Dear Uncle Kev,

As the year has passed, there has never been a moment that I haven't thought of you. Especially when we have family gatherings. I remember when you used to sing to me while strumming on your guitar. Such a sweet and beautiful melody with the words sung so softly. And at the end, your charismatic smile shined on me. You will forever be in my thoughts and in the lives of my children through the magical notes of music. You were trully an inspiration to me. Your vibrance and carefree lifestyle made me realize that I have so much to learn and show my girls. My life changed on that September 5th as I left work early and drove like a maniac on the L.I.E. I arrived at the hospital only 10 minutes after you made your glorious journey. I was heartbroken that I never got to say "I love you" one last time. Dad took it really hard and has never been the same since. He loves you so much and misses you tremendously, as we all do, but mostly when the Yanks are playing. I love you Uncle Kev! Your spirit will be with me always.

Hi Kev, started to say hello yesterday, but the words came out all wrong...too emotional... (and obviously this isn't going to be much better) but...just wanted to wish a happy birthday to you and the kids. you know that we can never, ever, forget you. we have a lifetime of memories to share... sometimes it can become very sad knowing you are not here with us but we talk about you (and to you) all the time. Kevin, you have always been such a good friend that all our stories bring smiles to our faces!! and, then, of course the smiles turn to tears because we miss you and a piece of us is now gone too... my friend, have a restful birthday, you deserve it! smile down on us from that cloud of yours from time to time and know we are smiling back. sending much love to you and your birthday partners, ian and erin.

always, mg & lamay

beautiful children a hug on Fathers

Sometimes when it's quiet and I'm alone, a memory will run through my head, a smile will come to my face and I know Uncle Kevin is still with me in my heart. As long as the people who love a person keep them in their hearts, they will be there when you need them. When Grandma passed I thought I would never wintess her spirit again, but I still do, in my own words, thoughts and beliefs. My family, even those that I have lost, have made me the person that I am today- and for that I am very thankful. Thank you Uncle Kevin, Uncle Ray and Dad for showing me what funny is- nuck nuck nuck! It's something everyone needs to get through things that seem just the opposite. To me, Uncle Kevin is not gone, he will always be remembered and loved.

Dear Kevin,

The first time I saw you, you took my breath away and like only a 16 year old girl can, I fell instantly in love. For a long time you were a major part of my life and will always be a major part of my memories. I am glad I got to see you at R&L's 25th but I will not remember you that way. When I think of you I picture the beautiful boy I fell in love with that summer afternoon. I see you playing frisbee with Phil on Castle Hill, singing and playing guitar up at Donald's, walking through Untemeyer Park on beautiful fall afternoons and standing on a frozen lake in the middle of the night in Gilboa, NY gazing up at the stars and wondering at the vastness of the universe. There are so many wonderful memories, too many to recount here but know you will always be remembered. Be happy Kevin.

Love as always,

Cathy

Dear Kevin, I can't believe you are not here with us anymore.You'll always be in my heart. I wish life didn't have to be so hard for you. You drove me crazy at times but you also taught me courage and strength and unconditional love. The kids and I miss you. Watch over us till we meet again. Love Me.

Dearest Uncle Kev,

Words cant express how much I am

going to miss you. As you know I never had a real uncle but you never made me feel that. You loved me just like if I was a part of your family .I am so happy for every little moment I got to share with you and I will cherish every little thing I ever learned from you.

I know that you are resting in eternal life and one day I will see your handsome face again .

I love you uncle kevin today tomorrow and always.

LETS GO YANKEES

Dear Kevin, We were thinking of you and remembering your unique smile and out look of life. I remember your first day at work as a Ironworker. You were scared but kept up the funny comments to over come you fears. Yet you were fearless when the time came to face your last days. It hard to believe we will not see you again. We miss you and think of you often. Ya- ya and Joe

Kevin,

Our great friend! You're in our hearts forever. Through the good times and sad times, you were always there. Your laughter and caring will never be forgotten. So glad you were at our 25th because it wouldn't have been the same without our "BEST" man! Never forget all those YES concerts. We love you!

Kevin, Calvin, and yes, Meatball,as you were known to me at different stages.You were so much a part of all our families when we were young.You were the favorite son no matter whos house we were in .There are many songs I hear that will always remind me of you. Mostly with a smile, sometimes with a tear. Put in a good word for all of us. You have paved our Stairway to Heaven.

Love Ray

In one sense there is no death.

The life of a soul on earth lasts

beyond his departure. You will always

feel that life touching yours,

that voice speaking to you,

that spirit looking out of other’s eyes,

talking to you in the familiar things

he touched, worked with and loved,

as familiar friends.

He lives in your life and in the lives

of all others who knew him.
