Kathie and Peter,
I just found out about your loss of Kevin. Not knowing Kevin but knowing of him and your other children, I always knew what special parents you are. I am sure he knew how special the two of you are and appreciated your love and support. That love and support will now help all of you as you grieve together and as you remember the many fun times you had as a family. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Kevin was so full of life; he never failed to light up a room and make everyone laugh. I'll cherish the memories of all the parties at the creek in the old days, and the mischief we got up to. I wish I could be there to see Kevin off, but know that my deepest sympathy and all my love is with each of you.

Dear Lee Family,
Words cannot express the profound sadness I feel. I've kept Kevin in my fond thoughts for so many years. He was a joy to have in class and always had a smile for everyone, even in the midst of his struggles. He's one of the most courageous people I have had the honor to know, as well as his family loyally supporting him always. I'll keep all of you in my prayers, knowing that God will comfort you. God Bless all,
Charlene DeLucia
