My deepest condolences, Kevin will be missed by many. I worked with Kevin for around 8 years and quickly became a friend. He was always willing to help a young ‘green’ mechanic like myself so long as you went for a coffee with him afterwards. Kevin always seemed to be in a good mood, he was full of funny stories and his laughter was infectious. He spoke of his family often and I’m sure he was a great father and husband.
Your friend
Darryl

My deepest sympathy to Shirley and her family. Kevin will be missed dearly by all who knew him. He was a great employee and always willing to help out. I have had the pleasure of working with Kevin for 17 years and he was always such a dedicated employee and always willing to put in 100% at anything he did. Customers miss him and continued to ask about him while he was off. They too, send their deepest condolences. Kevin, we will miss your great stories, straight to the point personality, enthusiasm for life and wonderful demeanour! You may be gone but your spirit will be with us forever.
Your friend and co-worker,
Tammy.

I was very sorry to hear about Kevin, we grew up together in Montreal and Kevin was often at our house listening to his records on Delormier Street, needless to say that this is about 45 years ago, he was a good friend to us all.

I have only good memories of Kevin, as he was a good, honest, and nice person. Myself and all the Asselin family were saddened and shocked to hear of his passing, and we send our deepest condolences. May you be comforted by all those who remember him fondly, and by God, our father, in the days ahead.
Sincerely,

Hey, good buddy! It’s been a very long time and you may not remember me. Hearing of your passing, saddened me deeply!
Your were a grade school friend of mine and I remember very good times wth you; – back in the days when life was good and simple and we kept our noses clean (Or, at least, most of the time). Back then, I always thought that you were such a “cool” guy with your long hair and pleasant disposition. You were always a good and decent person.
I see that your adult life was rich with Blessings; – very befitting.
I wish you well in this New Journey and may the good Lord watch over you always.
Heartfelt condolences to Kevin’s Family, relatives and all those he called friends.
