In honor of
Kevin Wells
From Mary Wells
heart
In honor of my son Kevin Wells, who had a Kidney Transplant on 08/23/2008 and did very well until 2022 and now he is in Renal Failure stage 3 but they won't do another transplant because he has had Thyroid Cancer. Anyway, I thank God for the Greatest Hero we never knew that allowed Kevin to be out almost 18 years with his gift of Life. your mom, Mary Wells
