I was deeply saddened to hear of Kevin's passing. I worked with him for 17 years at Raybestos. He was a great guy and he always brightened a room whenever he entered. Lynn, both Patty and I extend our deepest sympathies to you and Kevin's family.

I was so shocked and saddened to learn of Kevin's passing. He was a wonderful friend from St. Bernard's. Even though I had not seen him for many years, I always remembered his welcoming smile and infectious sense of fun. He was such a good and gentle person. My deepest sympathy to his wife and family.
