What a wonderful picture of Kevin. It truly captures his happy spirit. He was a loved and cherished family member and friend of the Anderson family. Our heart goes out to all of you for the many years to come living those firsts without a dad and husband. I hope you can find a bit of peace in the support of the family and friends who love you so much, and keep telling stories of him for years and years. He contributed so much to the community. He really was a special man who touched many lives. May he rest in peace and look down on you always, offering guidance and memories that will live in your hearts forever. Ashley Anderson (Brian Anderson’s wife)
