It was an awesome day. The crowd was electric and the guys fed off it and the situation surrounding it.
We came out a bit flat but scored 2 late in the half. After Kelowna got 1 back early in the 2nd, Penticton dominated the rest of the game creating numerous chances, great play, and fantastic goals. It was an unbelievable performance on and off the pitch.
Before the game, all the teams that Kev coached in some way or another were lead onto the field.
At half time, many people spoke about Kevin, and his family was given a trip to Disneyland. This was something the family was planning to do this fall before the accident. It was a great moment.
Late in the 2nd half there was a loud standing ovation for Kevin-even players on the pitch, while the game was still in progress, started applauding.
After the game, Kev's kids were hoisted onto Pinnacle player shoulders and paraded in front of the bleachers. The radiant smiles on their faces were much needed for them.
I couldn't think of a more perfect way, perfect day to celebrate Kev's life.
