Kevin has worked tirelessly for his patients. Often, he has come in early or stayed late to provide them with continuity. In addition, he is a strong advocate for his patients and their families. Recently, several of his patients' families have made the difficult decision to withdraw life support. I think the thank you notes below best shows what he means to the patients and their families.

Thank you, Kevin! You have been such a strong, supportive and feeling steward for my father-in-law and family! He would have loved you, and I'm sure he would've gotten you into some fun trouble! It's so rare in today's world to find someone so caring and compassionate to those they serve as part of their job. Bless you and thanks so much!

Thank you. These two words don't adequately express the amount of gratitude I have for you. Caregivers come in many forms and many just go through the motions of their job. I recognize that you put your own life on hold to help manage the care of my daddy, and the emotional well-being of my family. Please know it did not go unnoticed. What you do and have done matters so much more than you realize. You helped meet, not only the physical needs of my daddy but also the emotional support needs of those that loved him. Even if he could not say thank you, we can and want you to know you are valued far beyond that.
