I was best friends with Kevin’s sister Patti. We were always together. Kevin was such a little stinker. He was always trying to listen in on our conversations. He’d pop out from another room and say,” I’m telling on you guys.!” We’d start laughing telling him he didn’t hear the whole story. Good times! Rest in peace Kevin. Tell Patti I said hi and I miss her. 💜🙏🏻

When i first started 9 years ago, i remember Kevin when coming in, always makes his rounds in the office, taking the time to talk to almost every employee from the janitor all the way up. He would take the time to greet and talk to his employees and make them feel appreciated and often even crack jokes with them. And at end of day, he would sit in the lobby greeting everyone a good night while talking with some manager or rep. Every time i visit, he would come to my cubicle and take the time to chat about everything under the sun! I hope you find comfort in knowing that Kevin is with the Lord and with his brother Dan and all those who have gone before us, and that in Christ we look forward to that day when we’re reunited again. I'll be praying for the Walsh family. The Bible reminds us that to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord, and I hope that brings you a little peace today. 2 Corinthians 5:8

Kevin was a good man and I really loved working for him. I will miss him and our conversations discussing the life of selling books. God Bless Kevin Walsh.
