Kevin was one of the kindest individuals I ever worked with in Law Enforcement. As a young officer, he treated me as an equal and was always willing to show me how to improve myself. He truly wanted to serve people and was respected by people both inside the Law Enforcement community and the one with which he served. I was sad to hear of his passing and truly will be praying for his family to be comforted through this time.
