My deepest sympathies go out to you and your family. May God give you the comfort and peace that you seek and may the soul of Kevin rest in peace.
Rest well with your father in heaven, Kevin. I wish that I had the opportunity to get to know you better at church. Liv always had good things to say about you. Then I found out that you were Brandi’s godfather. You were loved by many. I pray God grants peace that surpasses all understanding to your family and friends.
Words can’t express my gratefulness that God allowed me such an encounter with “ His son”. I’m so happy your soul was won and you were fully persuaded in the Salvation of Jesus Christ! The sound Gospel of truth transformed you then transitioned you to eternal life! My love for you will always remain, what fun we had together. My brother in Christ never forgotten. My prayers and condolences to your family and the “KK”squad. Until we meet again.
Your Spirit declared on that day! 1/4/23!

Thank you so much for your words of condolences and sympathy that was his hope indeed to get better and for me to as his mother and his sister. I take Solace in knowing that he is not suffering or struggling to breathe I’m having such a hard time please pray for me his mom Eugenia Caldwell
God Bless you Ms. Eugeina, for you have lost 3 of your Sons. You don’t know me, but I remember seeing you standing in the front door of your house sometimes, where You, Kevin, Charles (Tony) & Andre lived on Republic, some 35-40 yrs ago. I understand that our Lord & Savior makes no mistakes & doesn’t put anything on us that we can’t bare, but you my God are certainly someone that’s been put to the ULTIMATE TEST!! Me being a mother of 3 offspring’s myself, I can truly say, that just knowing of you, that I somewhat felt your pain each & every time I learned of the passing of all 3 of your Sons. I know a Loving Mother, as yourself never fully recovers from the loss of a child, but I certainly pray that Our Lord Jesus Christ makes a way for you to heal as much as Humanly possible. Again God Bless you and the entire Brown, Cook and all other Family members & Friends who loved Kevin… And that’s a whole lot of LOVE!❤️❤️
