I debated on whether or not to post this, but Keven’s wife recently posted a public status on Facebook and it’s being shared. She’s asking for prayers because Keven is currently battling for his life against COVID. She says it’s one of the worst cases the hospital has seen. His son has also posted about it on Twitter.

This is absolutely devastating. Please keep the Lightner family in your prayers.

I also saw his son post on Twitter, so the news is out there. I'm praying for him and the family.
