My deepest condolences and love to the Mead Family❤️❤️
My sympathy to the Mead family.
broke my heart to read the paper today.
my condolences go out to the whole family.
Kevin was a favorite and lovable customer and friend as well as being one of the most interesting people i’ve known .
he will be sorely missed.
I was so sorry to read about Kevin’s passing. What a true gentleman he was!! I always looked forward to him coming into Tops to pick up his NY Times and the conversations we would have. He would buy lottery tickets once in awhile and talk about going on trips to France..I have missed him the last couple of years and thought of him often. He was truly one of a kind and I will miss him. RIP dear Kevin
Dear Brendan and Francesca,
Although I live in Bedford PA now I was saddened to learn of your father,Kevin’s passing. I knew him from various committees and with your dear mom, Ann. He was a true gentleman and loved his community and participated in so much to enhance Warren. I was fortunate to have known him and call him friend. Remember the good family times.
To the Mead Family, I am so sorrry for your loss Brendan, Francesca and family members. Kevin was a truly wonderful person, so kind and generous. Although I haven’t seen him in several years, my memories of time spent with my friend Kevin in the 1960s will remain vivid forever. You will be in my thoughts and prayers. With sympathy, Judy Emling

Dear Brendan and Francesca, I was saddened to hear of Kevin’s passing.He was a kind and generous man that touched many lives where ever he was. I was one of his paper boys many years ago, one of my favorite jobs when I was a kid. I wish I had more time to listen to his stories. He was a man that could tell a good story and he also wanted to hear your stories. He was a great man and we will miss him. We wish you strength to carry on.
