Memories
Kevin and I worked together then after work we would run the streets doing whatever till when ever .We were and will always remain friends . He was a gentle giant but a wild man . I,ll miss him so Big Kev go rest high upon that mountain
My very first encounter with Kevin was when he was 11 years old. I was on one of my very first dates with Ronnie and he had taken me to Elwood. Kevin ran up to me and said “are you coming home for dinner”. That was the beginning of a beautiful relationship with the Sanders family, ( MY FAMILY ). I love all of you very much.
I want to express my condolences to the sanders family and friends he was a good guy and will be missed
