His funeral was held in the same church where they were married. Sometimes when she's doinff the things thev did tooether. like playing tennis or running, tears fill her eyes. Although Kevin died at an early age, SO, he left a legacy that won't be easy forgotten. Nicci, who was born in December 1882, is too young to remember her fattier, but Jan is prepared. "I saved a lot of stuff and I wrote some things down for her about her father. He was very well liked and a lot of friends that continue to be interested with Nicci. She's their link with him, so she'll know her father," Jan said. Nicci was born three months premature. She spent her first two-and-a-half months in the hospital and Kevin was there each day to provide special attention. "He's run in there everyday to give her a rubdown with lotion. She's the one thing that was missing before his heart gave way," Jan said. Ironically, last year's half-and full marathons were sponsored by the Lake County Heart Association. Funds will be raised this year for the Illinois Special Olympics. "It will be a real big day. I'm a little scared sometimes, too. I don't know how it is going to be," Jan said. Whatever the result, one thing is sure - Jan won't be alone. "It always feels like Kevin is there whenever I'm running. When you lose someone special so quickly and abruptly that you can't say goodbye, the termination is not really complete."
