I met Kevin when he came to work at R.R.C. Our friendship grew on a daily basis. He was so caring and concerned of all the problems with my leg. Always telling me, no matter what I need either at work or on the outside to let him know. To make sure he gave me his cell phone number. I told him he had the look of a grizzly bear, but the heart and soul of a teddy bear. I will forever miss our 6:30 a.m. phone calls. Ann, I know how much you loved each other. Keep the memories close to your heart. Your in my thoughts and prayers Laurie
