I just got word down here in TX. Hard to get a grip on my feelings. Havent seen Kevin since late 95 or early 96 when I was still in the Army. I was home on leave and he and I got to hang out for a while. Ive seen this before,,,but not with a guy I grew up with.Loss of any brother hurts,,,but this is really hard. Thoughts of home and classmates flood my mind at night when I try to sleep. Miss you all. All my heart goes out to the family,I truly understand your loss.
GOD Bless and keep you.

I was shocked to see this and know who you were. I went to the funeral. It was amazing. He did it for all of us. We just have to remember that. Are you still in the military. I've been wondering about you as well. Be careful.

I am so very proud to have know Kevin and am so sorry for the loss for his children, wife and family. He was a sensitive, funny and loving individual who will be sadly missed. I have a whole new understanding of the war in Iraq and pray daily for those serving our country and their families. God bless.
