To kevin's wonderful family...it was with deep sadness that we heard of your dear dad's passing. we knew him eons ago in melrose. he was maureen's 'big brother' who entertained us with his amazing magic shows and introduced us to his college friends at villinova. He always had a smile, a kind word, something to make you laugh, and we're sure that he was the same with all of you. i remember when he met your mom. we could all tell that they were in love. it was a 'good thing' that two such genuinely nice people should meet,fall in love, marry and have this wonderful family. It is not fair that you lost them both so soon but life is not always the way we would design it. we are glad that they both saw you all meet someone special like they did, and continue this joyous family plan. we will remember them both, now reunited, in our prayers....love, betty gilbert and jake keough
