Deepest sympathy to you Carmel on the loss of your soul mate Kevin. He had a lasting impression on everyone who met him. So knowledgeable about the world, travel, politics or cracking a joke with us. His letters to the national press were a pleasure to read always. We will miss Kevin’s warm smile as he stood in the doorway of the salon to greet us all. Sincere sympathy also to Martina and all the Devitte and Carroll families for your very sad loss.

Kevin is playing a joke on me. I have sent this in twice on my iPad, and it never went. (He also hid my phone).
Keven was born on a Monday. Born on Monday, you are born fair of face. Kevin left us on Friday.
And Fridays children are born loving and giving. This a short way to describe Kevin in a nutshell.
The truth is, from the day he was born he wanted to explore everything,
he climbed out of his crib, when he was 6 months old. Ten minutes later he climbed out again.
He was sweet and always kind. He stood up against bullies, and he gave more than he took.
He saw a mountain, met Carmel, and that was his forever home with her his darling wife.
His favorite thing was to say was “Have a calm day”.
I have loved you since the day Mom came home from the Hospital and I was five.
You will always be with me, and loved.
bye, bye, bye, times 13, love Head (Heather).

Kevin and I grew up together in Las Vegas walking to Crestwood Elementary School and John C Fremont Jr. High School in the 60’s. Kevin’s love of music came from this era and I had the pleasure of being there. I visited Kevin and Carmel in Westport a couple of times and could easily see why Kevin decided to stay and see his love for Carmel. I will miss you Kevin.
