Kevin was a great friend. I met kevin about 10 years ago and we always had a great time. I will never forget the great memories we all shared boating at Lake Wawasee, Lake James, Put-in-Bay, & Going out in Pheonix when I was there for Business. He had great charisma and was very accepting of everyone he met. I will miss him. He will be joining one our other great friends, Scotty.. I can only imagine the fun they will have.

I knew Kevin when my mother dated his father. We were probably ten years old then. He was sweet and kind and funny too! I’m sure he turned into a great man. To his family, I am very sorry for your loss. I to have been through tragedy with the loss of my mother in 1984 and then the loss of my younger brother in 1993. I know that they all are in a better place and they would not want you to be sad. So may Kevin Rest in Peace and one day we will see him again.
