You were the father of my children and my companion for 15 years. Although we drifted apart you were always in my thoughts and prayers. Seeing you dance with our daughter at her wedding made me smile and I knew how much you loved her because you never danced with anyone… including me. Here is hopes that you are dancing in Heaven with the other angels and by God’s side. To Keni & Joe… I love you both and I’m so sorry your dad is no longer here, but always remember that love is always greater than death and he is never gone but in your hearts.
My sincere condolences to Virginia and all of your family. Kevin is missed by many. My prayers are with you all. I have also asked for Mass to be said in his memory at Our Mother of Sorrows, my parish, in Tucson, AZ. Peace be with you, and your spirit… Aindrea
