I just came upon this as I was preparing a memorial wall for all the officers I've known who died due to duty-related issues.
Kevin worked my shift (midnight) in the 250's (Dallas PD, Northeast Patrol) in the late 1980's, and was my friend from the first time we met. We had a lot of hilarious times together on and off duty. When I left Dallas PD in 1991, during heavy turmoil, he talked me into going to Jamaica with him for a week. It was a gas. (Completely out-of-control, of course, but a gas, nonetheless.)
If his family is reading this, please accept my (belated) condolences. Kevin's friends in the Midwest were devastated when we got the news. We held a memorial bonfire at my house, and told good stories all night.
Kevin, I hope you're at peace now.
