Kevin Edward Boitson

Kevin Edward Boitson, 36, of Conestoga, Pennsylvania and formerly Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, passed at Johns Hopkins Hospital, on Tuesday, October 28. He is now with his Lord and Savior after a courageous four month battle with Angiosarcoma cancer.

Kevin was well loved by all those around him, and throughout his life has touched many lives with his big heart and strong will. These traits helped him to reach out to so many and fight on during his battle with a rare cancer, and, for this, his legacy will go on forever.
