  7. Kevin was the most down to earth person I have ever met. No airs and graces, just a big heart and soul. Would not tolerate people disrespecting another person. He stood up for those he felt were wronged, he remained a little boy in a man's body his entire life, I called him a Peter Pan. He remained in my life for the past 63 years. I remember sitting on our front porch in Midway St, I was 13 at the time,he pulled out an onion and proceeded to munch on it. He was honest and a true friend.He looked over me and cared, and God help anyone who said anything bad about me.He will be truly missed, rest peacefully Yogi,thank you for the memories.
