He was a one of a kind with a heart of gold. I hold so many memories that will never fade. He not only touched my heart, but he will never let go. His love will be forever strong. I wish there were words to describe him, but there would never be enough. I love you, Uncle Kevin, thank you for every moment we had. Thanks for Rocky Road ice cream and Snicker candy bars . . . thank you for the honor of being your niece. Your (baby doll), April Carol Haddon hadduc@id.net Healing light somehow shines through all darkness. May comfort surround you during this sad time. Barb, as you know Kevin and you have been my friends forever. I want everyone to know what a special person your partner was to me. During a very sad time of my life, being newly divorced, Kevin came to my home with a load of firewood that he had spent many hours cutting and then unpacking it in my garage. That is a treasured moment in my life, for someone to work so hard and care so much. There are so many people, but only a few truly care about others. I am so sorry to hear that Kevin has left this world so soon. Love, Carol Sheila Jack Aunt Barb I am so sorry! If there is anything I can do for you, please let me know . . . . . . Uncle Kevin - we all miss you so much. You were one of a kind, and always the first to give a helping hand or a pat on the back, just to say you were proud of us, even the small stuff. Thank you so much for all the great memories, and for being a wonderful uncle. You will always have a spot in my heart.
