“Kevin was a special Olympian and a special person. He always had a big smile and a hug for me. I had the honor of coaching Kevin and his teammates with George Nasuti at the Power Shack in Woonsocket. I know that George was at the gate to greet you. Rest in peace my friend; I’ll see you again in paradise. Jeff”
