To Edward ,Mary and entire family. I am so saddened to hear of Kevin’s passing. Kevin was such a kind and beautiful soul. My heart goes out to you. You are in my prayers. So sorry sincerely, Mary Thompson
Mary and Ed, there are no words. Our kids grew up together. Kevin was such a sweet kid. So many memories of him playing in our yard, or the kids playing in yours. Every day they were together. We put the gate in so the kids had easy access. I still see his little smiling face..my heart is broken for you. May Kevin rest in eternal paradise. My love to you all.
I’m so sorry to hear about the loss of Kevin. I’ll cherish the memories made growing up with Adam, Kevin, and Alex. Sending all my love and positive vibes to you all. Rest Easy, Kevin.
