Yeah. That woulda…. Shoulda….. coulda will get you every time. Guitarweasel and I only lived about an hour apart for several years before he moved further south in illinois. Always talked about meeting up for a beer somewhere in the middle. Never did. Never will be able to now. Regrets!!

I'm glad that I had the chance to become good friends with Javamagic from ETSG and visited him in both Ireland and England several times over the years. My wife and I have a standing offer to stay at his house outside of Shannon any time we like. Also stayed with Lex Lurid a few times. Was trying to get together with Strange Brew on one of my UK trips, but could never make it happen. We keep up on F-B, and he sees Java every now and then.

Yeah, I know I'm not remembering everyone. My brain is fried right now. I have a hard time with memory since I had my stroke and my anxiety disorder doesn't make it any easier. It doesn't take much for me to get overwhelmed. Thanks taking up the slack, brother! :H5:

I'm looking back on so many great memories. Kev was something special and so real. I feel grateful to have known him. I only wish we could have met in person, we talked about how to make it happen, but I guess it just wasn't in the cards.

yeah, i wanna say he was thinking about a trip to orlando at some point before his accident. We talked about meeting up whenever he came over across the pond. Damn, I wish that had happened
 
Hi, this is Kevin's wife. I received a message of condolence from Steve from the guys on here that Kevin was friends with and would just like to say thank you. I have been reading the messages about him above and the kind words have been comforting, it's clear he was held in high regard, thank you. I hope through your interactions with Kevin that you got a true sense of the person he was, warm, generous, a natural born comedian with a razor sharp wit. He was also utterly fearless, almost to the point of recklessness at times which made being his wife a position not for the faint-hearted. He was the biggest pain in my butt but most of all he was my husband and i loved him dearly. It was a cruel twist of fate for him to pull through a horrific accident, that even the doctors said he shouldn't have, only for his heart to fail him but if courage and sheer pig-headed determination dictated your life span he would have outlived us all. Thank you, Elaine.

Yes, that's true. We had discussed going back to Florida. We got married over there and Kevin described going back as "returning to the scene of the crime". That's the kind of stuff i had to deal with with him.
And yes, I know about the "Der Fuhrer" thing.

I've just noticed this is posting as Kevin. I'm guessing it's logged in when I've opened the app on his phone. Sorry if I startled anyone.

I, for one, was hoping against hope that you would post under Kev's log in when DirtySteve said you had his fone with the link to the forum on it. My daughter went to Scotland not long after his accident. Kev had agreed to show her around Glasgow and I'm heartbroken she didn;t get to meet you all. she is as well because she knew how much I thought of him. My prayers are with you and your family, and i mean that sincerely. Thank you for posting.
