A very special evening celebrating the life of an extraordinary person.
On July 11th, 2025 my dear Kevin lost his life to complications from lung cancer. Learn more here.
His wish was to forgo a traditional viewing and funeral. Instead he wanted to be cremated and have a celebration of his life.
Saturday, April 4, 2026 was a fitting date for his celebration. It would have been his 70th birthday.
The event took place near our NYC home in Chelsea’s Gallery District.
I was joined with our close friends and family to celebrate Kevin’s life and memory. Whether you were there in person or in spirit I thank you for helping make it an amazing night.
