Victim of wretched place known as the Willowbrook State "School" located on Staten Island, New York (no longer exists thanks to Geraldo Rivera's expose in 1972).
Kevin was transferred from Willowbrook to Bronx State Hospital two months before his death and that's where he died. I don't know why he was transferred nor do I know his exact cause of death. The New York State Archives (where Willowbrook records are stored) makes it extremely difficult to obtain records, even on a relative as close as a brother. So strangers that work there can easily look at Kevin's file but I can't. It makes no sense.
