Friends,
It is really hard to believe that Kevin has been  "In The Light Of Heaven" for 7 years now.  It seems like just yesterday he went home to Jesus. Much has happened since then, Kevin now has 2 more grandchildren, Vera and Jasper and his oldest granddaughter Zoe- has just graduated from high School.
Congratulations are surely in order.

If I could send a message from my older brother, it would be to tell everyone to Stay Strong.  Be unshakable in your faith for we have the victory in Christ. Never stop sharing about the HOPE that is in you thru Christ Jesus. Your work for the Lord is not in vain because His word will never return void.  

During Kevin's years as a quadraplegic, he stayed strong- always encouraging others and never letting the enemy rob him of the joy he knew was coming. There were times he would call me to encourage me when he know I was having difficulties.  But none of my difficulties came close to what he was experiencing.  Kevin would often talk about the old days when the harvest was ripe. Looking back, it was an experience I will never forget.  I am STILL very blessed to hear so many stories of people coming to Christ at one of the Sweet Comfort Band concerts. It has been my greatest honor and priviledge to be a part in what God is doing.  So please keep those testimonies coming. 
You can send them to me thru Sweet Comfort Band's facebook page.

I look forward to hearing from you.  Until then...

The LORD bless you, and keep you;
The LORD make His face shine on you,
And be gracious to you;
The LORD lift up His countenance on you,
And give you peace.’

Rick Thomson

But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my dear brothers, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain. (1 Cor. 15:50-58)

Dear Friends,

I can't thank you enough for keeping my brothers memory alive. It seems like just yesterday that he went home.  Still very tough for me! He is surely missed.

Dear Friends,

Yesterday was a tough one for me after posting Kevin's photo on the Sweet Comfort Band's facebook page.  Even though I know he's in a much better place, I still miss him- especially since the band has reunited and are about to release our 7th album without him.Thanks for your continuing tributes to my brother and know that we still read the notes and stories that so many of you have shared.  You all have so many great memories of Kevin.  We cherish each and every one of your notes and stories about him.  Again, thank you from the bottom of my heart. May Our Heavenly Father continue to bless you more than you could ever imagine.  

Rick Thomson
