My deepest sympathy to the entire Forsythe family. He is now in GOD"S hands. There will be no more suffering for this kind child of the most high GOD. I have known Kevin for many years. He was such a wonderful and genuine person. My friend Bill Woehlck and I gave Kevin the nickname Forky and he loved the nickname. He will be missed by me and many. Rest in peace Forky in GOD"S KINGDOM and I will see you soon. In the wonderful name of JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH'S NAME. AMEN. SINCERELY, PHIL MORREALE

I just found out about Kevin today. I have knonw Kevin for over 24 years through Matco Tools. A lot of people come and go in this business, but not Kevin, he was a survivor. His dedication to his customers and his family was a key. My thoughts and Prayers go out to Karen and the girls, who I know he loved very, very much!
