Kev....You're Dad was right. Always the original. Never the copy. Though the years separated us, and the distance in the living of our lives kept us divided, cousins we were...and I recall a number of qualities in you that I always admired. Strength, courage, confidence, self-esteem, fortitude...a man to look up to. I wished I had your sense of humor. Even your career choice...was one that I too had attempted to embark upon when I was young. Eventually, driving...whether it be a truck, car, or van, became part of who I was. It was something we shared. Your eyes were always steely...but they also had a reflection of softness in them...almost dare I say, a melancholy. I'm glad that you were with us, even for such a short while. Say Hi to your Mom when you see her...give her a hug for me. I don't pretend to know your personal choices, but I think the song " My Way" by Sinatra...would be the one that best represents you. May your soul find peace in its new place. Rest comfortably for a while...but not too long. There's a whole spiritual realm out there for you to explore. Enjoy the journey. Love you!~
