While mourning his brother, Dennis Oliech said he became numb after getting the sad news

‘TO MY BROTHER KEVIN. I DON’T EVEN KNOW WHERE TO START THERE IS SO MUCH I WANT TO SAY BUT I DON’T THINK I WILL EVER MANAGE TO SAY IT ALL IN ONE DAY. YESTERDAY I COULDN’T EVEN DO ANYTHING BUT CRY, MY BODY WAS NUMB. ONE THING I KNOW IS OUR BROTHERHOOD WILL FOREVER BE IN MY HEART UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN BROTHER,’

He went on to describe the late Kevin as a warrior

FOR THE PAST WEEK, WE HAD DEEP CONVERSATIONS ABOUT LIFE AND DESPITE YOUR PAIN YOU STILL TRIED TO BE POSITIVE. YOU TOLD ME THAT IF ONE DAY I AM TO TALK TO PEOPLE ABOUT YOU I SHOULD TELL THEM HOW YOU WERE FULL OF LIFE AND THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT I WILL DO BRO. KEVIN, YOU ARE A WARRIOR AND YOU FOUGHT UNTIL THE END. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH, BROTHER. REST IN PEACE BRO.

May his soul rest in peace!
