Nearly 20 years have passed by since I met you Kevin. I can honestly say I have never met someone like you. You had a singular wit about you, you were the master of the protracted negotiation, and you had a most tender and loving way about you.
From our first meeting and through to the last interacting with you each was an unusual and enriching experiences.
We've called one another best friend for a long time, we terrorized many an antique shop, night club, nature preserve, and countless restaurants together. We have shared so many laughs.
Kevin, I cannot believe it has all come to an end for us.
So many family members and friends will miss you greatly. As for me, I will draw back on all those thousands of memories of the good times and keep you in my heart while also missing you and missing us making new memories.
Your sweet little dog Frankie misses you every hour of every day. I am sorry I cannot cook for you once more, you were always eager to sit down to dinner. Your zest for life will also be missed Kevin.
May flights of angels carry you to peaceful painless rest.
With all my Love,
George/.
