Kmack57 Loses the Battle

[Moespy]

Kevin lost his battle with PCa last Thursday at the age of just 63. He lived with the beast for 7 years. Kevin messaged me on this forum 2+ years ago and we hiked together nearly every week from that point on. He became one of my favorite friends and was a great family man. He leaves behind his wife, 3 children, and 1 grandbaby. I will miss him very much and look forward to being reunited with him one day.

My deepest condolences for Kevin to his family. Big warm fuzzy hug out to his wife and family. So sorry to hear another warrior has fallen, especially so young. Sorry for your loss.

Thank you so much! I really hope you are doing well. This disease is a heartless and relentless beast!

So sorry Moespy. Kevin had a good 20-25 years of hiking in front of him. I feel the science is so close for cure....yet so far away. We send you, and Kevin and his family many blessings. Sincerely,

Mike

[Currumpaw]

Moespy,

My deepest sympathies to Kevin's family and friends. Thank you for shouldering the unpleasant task of delivering this sad news. Your short paragraph showed the richness added to his life during his illness by his wonderful family and friends. This had to make him know that though his life was indeed short, it was lived well! He got it--right! Your post shows he lived his life that way from the beginning, forging strong relationships with family and friends. He knew and found the true value of life.

[Moespy in reply to Currumpaw]

So very sorry for your loss

Thank you

[gamemaster34]

So sorry for your lose of a friend and to his family also. We hurt with you.

[Moespy in reply to gamemaster34]

Very nice, thank you.

[mangeycritter]

In a better world, there would be a way to spread his family's pain and grief among all the members here, and I'm betting the members would welcome the chance. In that same world, we would all have friends like you. We reach for appropriate words, but our reach always, and always will, fall short.

[Moespy in reply to mangeycritter]

Great thought and sentiment. Thank you.

[Rahul_Patel]

I pray to almighty for strength to all the loved ones of Kevin.
