Little Brother,



We miss you so much and can't believe you are gone. You lived life to the fullest and left us way to soon. We talked a long time the other day and I will never forget it. Today is Timmy's birthday 11/17 and you are forever in heaven with him. The two of you were real brothers to me, and especially our parents. You will always be together with Mom, Dad and Tim in Heaven. We'll meet up again someday like we did at Matanzas Inlet that hot and windy summer afternoon. That was Gods work that day and you know it too. I miss you so much and I've cried alot of tears for you. I keep waiting for your phone call or to see you at the store.

Oh, and that speed boat ride you took me on, I lied, you drove that so fast I thought that was the end.



I'll always be there for you Justin. I placed your name to maintain the guestbook for your Dad so you're in charge now.



Good Bye Kevin.



Like you always said when we parted, I love you bro.



I love you too.



Forever,



Your Brother Sean

and your niece and nephew

Shannon and Tyler

I am at a loss for words. To me Kevin is still a, Oh, so handsome youngster filled with oh, so much mischief. That mischief, that enthusiasm -gone- is too hard to comprehend. Thinking about your great loss brings so much sadness to my heart. The five O'Donnell Boys- what a unit of uniqueness and life. We share in your great loss. Uncle Joe & Aunt Jackie
