Dearest Virginia and family - my heart has broken along with yours at the loss of "our boy." Kevin was and always will be one of my kids. He was my Peter Pan, who was never going to grow old - the Lord must have needed to have him closer, but oh how I will miss that smile and laughter (and the prank phone calls!) Please remember, God didn't tell us not to grieve - but He told us not to grieve without HOPE (1 Thes. 4:13) - we'll see Kev again one day. Love you, Sharon
