My condolences to the Johnson Family. Kevin was my former brother-n-law. Always had a smile for me. ALWAYS called me "Sis", despite a divorce many many years ago.......But this never ever defined the loving relationship this beautiful family had for each other. Rest in Peace Kevin. May God grant you an eternal life in his Glorious Kingdom.
Thoughts and prayers be with all as they mourn a life that was taken way too soon.
Love,
Your Sister-n-Law,
Patricia Dickens Johnson

Kevin was an intelligent caring and compassionate man who always kept it real,you will be missed.

Kevin, not just because you were my brotha' but you were GOOD on the court as well as in drafting. "Choice" is a word that many of us cannot truly define until a specific moment/s are presented to us which are "the defining moments in our lives. You are always my brotha' and don't forget the 23rd Psalm (Lol!)! I Love You My Brotha',
Your Brotha' Forever,
Derrick
PS: Never forget the "Chicken George!" (Lol)
