My thoughts are with you and your family.
While I met Mrs Rens a few times, Kevin was a classmate of mine from Amity (maybe even kindergarden) through WHS. He was truly nice person. I remember when Kevin and the rest of us would pretend to be truck drivers at Amity during the mid 70’s CB craze! Just a random thought.
Again, I am so sorry for your loss.
Sorry for your loss Tammy?you are in our thoughts. Hugs??
Arlyn, Sorry to here wife.
