I've been thinking about Kev and miss him. As an Art Institute of Boston student, I met Mary Jo and him, and played baseball with Kev and he worked at a biomed firm after graduation at Orion Research in Cambridge, MA. He became an ad genius for them for their "thirsty electrodes" and other campaigns. We had a blues band with Silas Hubbard and recorded songs that have lasted. God bless Mary Jo & Kev. I miss you both. Don Varno

The times we've shared and the stories\adventures that we were part of have help to inspired me to be a better person. One conversation has stayed with me, it made me look at myself in a way I had never before. It allowed me to accept the totality of my life and unite the creative and logical into a powerful creative force. The music we created proved that something is greater than the sum of it's parts. To say I loved you as a brother does not fully convey the affection I have for you. You will always be an inspiration to me and as long as I draw breath the telling of our stories will keep you alive and close.
