Biography

Kevin was a veteran of the U.S. Air Force and proudly served with the Philadelphia Police Department for 13 years. During his career, Kevin was nominated for many awards, the one he was proudest of was his TOP COP nomination in 2021. This embodied everything about Kevin’s way of life, his bravery, and his willingness to put his life on the line for the safety of others; he had everyone’s back on and off-duty. In his downtime, he loved spending time with his family, taking trips to his parents’ mountain house, and going on vacations with his fiance Jennifer. He loved his family fiercely, and his son, Lil Kev, was his pride and joy. When he wasn’t with family, he could be found hanging out with friends/fellow police officers, watching movies, and serving up some of his quick wit. He has a way of making everyone feel safe and loved, his huge heart and his hugs melted away problems. He is loved and missed terribly – life will never be the same without him.
