    Kevin had a very special gift that many individuals do not have and that was the love and compassion he provided to so many young men and women. We were touched and blessed with the care he gave Reed when he resided in the Hector home. God Bless you Kevin and Thank you for the love you have given to so many.
    Our thoughts and prayers to his siblings.

    I’m so sorry for your loss. I remember when we were kids, running over from our grandparents house to see him and his animals. He was so kind hearted and always had time for us.
