Dear Mary, Bradley and Robert,
John just heard of Kevin's passing this morning at Mrs. Foody's wake. We are absolutely shocked at this and our prayers and thoughts are with you and your boys. We are so very sorry. John has many great memories of fishing with Kevin up in Canada and remembers how he caught 29 fish on one minnow! I remember the times we did spend together at your house and the racetrack. You were both such wonderful people.
Kevin was a great fishing partner and friend. May God bless you and may Kevin be the angel to watch over all of you.
Thinking of you,
John and Monica Loye

Mary, Bradley. and Robert, Our sincere sympathy to your family. I have many great memories of Kevin as we were very close in age. I remember our dads taking us pheasant hunting here on our farm. We each had a .410 shotgun, so we were very young. May God hold you up in your loss of Kevin. Our prayers go with you, Joel and Peggy Schneider

Mary, Bradley and Robert, We have many memories of Kevin, as I think of he and his dad coming pheasant hunting at our farm. Both of us boys had .410 shotguns at the time, so we were very young. Also, the time Kevin brought your boys to see the baby calves at our farm. We will miss seeing him at our Schneider reunions. We always enjoyed a good visit. May God hold you up at this sad time. In prayers, Joel and Peggy Schneider

Mary,
We are so sorry for your loss. Joe will always remember Kevin in a special way. He enjoyed Kevins company when ever he was around. He was so excited when he brought home the copy of Kevins book that he wrote. We have it put up where it will always be treasured. We have read it to our new granddaughter. When she is old enough she will know about the great man that wrote it. Once again, we are so sorry for your loss.

Mary & Boys,
I have many fond memories of Kevin gowing up over the years when he visited us in South Dakota but the best one was just a couple years back when everyone was here for our Schneider reunion and after it was all over you and Kevin invited us over to Edna's back yard and we all sat around and talked and laughed...I'm so happy we did that. Your all in our thoughts & prayers daily...Kevin is missed.
