Lesli Asson (O'Neill) (1978)

Kevin had just returned from a month-long European tour with Cindy, Kathy, and Kelle Church, Amy Hanzel, and Robin and Lesli Asson in July 1978. We had a terrific time touring five countries and in each one (where there was a piano) Kevin entertained everybody with his remarkable talent, especially with 'Georgie Porcupine', a boogie woogie tune. Remember that one? 

On the day he was killed, his father had just purchased him a new Firebird to get him off his motorcycle. It was a terrible accident 'out in the country' that cost him his life. I believe he was on his way to rehearse with Kelly Crane who was going to sing at a wedding. 

I'm old(er) and this is how I remember it; could be wrong on a few things! However, the trip to Europe was such an awesome time to get to know Kevin. What a guy! This was a terrible, sad loss to anybody who knew Kevin.
