Not a day goes by that you aren't in my thoughts. I miss you so very much and sometimes tell myself that soon you will call, if only that could happen. Take care baby boy and keep watching over all of us. Love you forever.

So sad to hear Kevin is no longer physically with us. It was so great to see him at hockey after so many years when we were so much younger. Kim I am sorry you lost part of yourself but he will always be within your heart, body and spirit. You will never lose that connection with him, that is something truely special. Marilyn I can't imagine what and how you are feeling but know that Kevin is always with you and loves you more than you know.

Kevin, I'll always miss you so much!Since the day we were born I've been identified more in my live as one of the twins or the twins. And as we were growing up and having to go to new schools I always knew I had my brother by my side. Now for the first time your not here by my side to even call. And for me that's really hard. Because I was proud to be your twin. Now two twins separated by heaven and earth. Until I meet you in heaven please look after all of us and know just how much you truly are loved and will be deeply missed!❤

Oh Kevin how our hearts ache since losing you. Life will never be the same for any of us but we'll get through this and stand United as family like we always have, and never forget you. We know you are near and watching over all of us, we've seen your signs letting us know that. Keep on letting us know that you're okay. Rest now my baby boy and know only Peace for Eternity.
