As a person who went to St. Jude's and CCHS with Kevin I want to send my condolences to his family of brothers and sisters. So many years ago and yet seems like yesterday. I was on the Cape and Kevin looked me up and we had a fun weekend catching up with what each of us were doing. He was a fun guy and kind man. Rest in peace.
