Mary, we're so sorry to hear about Kevin's passing. We are praying for you!
Mary,
What a blessing Kevin was to our family. It was always such an encouragement to us when we saw the two of you come to church. And you and Kevin both live your lives as such a godly testimony to those around you.
Kevin will be missed by us and others! Please call on us if you need anything...anything at all.
We continue to pray for you, and hope you find comfort not only from your friends and family but from the Lord.
We love you!

Dearest Mary, Allan, and Marcia,
We were so sorry to learn of Kevin's passing. He was precious and will be missed. We thank the LORD for a place called Heaven. You are in our prayers. We have been so blessed to be a small part of Kevin's life. I remember one particular Sunday not seeing Kevin at church . I asked the caregiver where he was and she told me that he stayed home so another gal from the home could have the opportunity to visit services as only ONE wheelchair at a time could ride in the van. I was touched. That's just how thoughtful Kevin was! God has an eternal home for us with no good-byes, sorrow or pain. We look forward to Kevin's graduation service and know he is without complaint in his new home. Our love to each of you.
Pastor Noonan and the Rochester Baptist Church Family
