Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Kevin,

I can't believe today marks 3 years.... I am still waiting to wake up from this terrible dream, I remember this day like it was yesterday... No matter how much I try to forget everythng I did that day and how it ended, I can't get it out of my head, i can't get that feeling of pain to go away. I miss you so much!

I catch my self looking for you wherever i go, even though I know you won't be there. I call your cell phone occassionally just to hear your voice, even though no matter how long it's been I'll never forget your voice or your laugh! I guess I just wait for you to pick it up...

I get so mad sometimes that you left us. Wanting to know why, there was so much we still had to do. We've had to and still are adjusting to you not being here, it's crazy.

I wish I could see you one last time and tell you everything, just like i used to when you were here. You were the person I called when I had a problem, you were the one who gave me advice! You were my big brother, always there to protect me! Always there to tell me when I was being stupid, lol. I guess you still are there in my heart, leading me in the right directions...

I love you Kev, no matter how long it takes I know I will see you again!

In my mind and heart forever you will be!

Love always and forever,
Jeanine

I said a little prayer today for Police Officer Lee and his family. He may be gone but never forgotten. He will always be a New York HERO.

Another Christmas has gone by without you. We don't spend Christmas at home anymore we go to Florida now. It's very hard for us still. Daddy was remembering all the wonderful times. He misses you so very much along with Adam. Adam's such a good boy. Thank you for Adam he's the best gift a son can leave us.

Love you and miss you

Dearest Kevin,

You're gone for almost 3 years now, and I need to tell you that everyday you are thought of by every member of our family. The holidays are the hardest because the void is so large. The love and ache in our hearts will never leave us for you.

Watching Adam grow he is your exact replica, he has your infectious smile, also gets silly just like you did, smart as a whip, has some great wise cracks too -- you would be so proud. The love and care given to Adam by your Mom, Dad, Jeanine, grandma and grandpa is just like you when you were a child. So now when he grows up he'll be you. He a wonderful little boy.

I love and miss - Always, Aunt Grace

I still have the stuffed tiger that you brought me when we were there I will always treasure it. I miss you alot.

My dear kevin

It's been over two years since you left us, and this is the first time I sat down to write something. I've been coming back here to read what people wrote from your friends,strangers, other law enforcement people and from family over and over again. I just couldn't write, I would just get tearly eyes thinking of you.

I would sit on the sofa after getting home from work and imagine you coming home on weekends to see Adam saying "Helloooo, I'm home" and Adam hiding telling to be quiet while he hid from you. How he jump on you and shout "Daddy". I think how often you would call to talk him and to us while you were working.

Now I sit at my desk looking at your pictures, seeing you growing up, taking care of your sister as both were growing up then caring for Adam, being there for him when ever possible.

I always keep thinking about that day when you left us, if I could have been there for you, if things would have turned out different. I'll never know. I do know that we are and always be very proud of you. And how much you were ours even for just a little while. I miss and love you Kev.

"The Badge"

He starts his shift each day
To respond to calls unknown.
He drives a marked patrol car.
A police officer he is known.

He's paid by the citizens' taxes
To make it safe on the streets.
But he usually has a second job
'Cause a waitress has his salary beat.

Now he doesn't know a holiday
'Cause he works all year round.
And when Thanksgiving and Christmas finally arrive
At his home he cannot be found.

He's cursed and assaulted often,
The one whos blood runs blue.
He seldom ever gets a thanks,
To some he's just a fool.

His friends are always other cops
'Cause people just don't understand
That underneath his badge and gun,
He's just another man.

He knows there might not be a tomorrow
In this world of drugs and crime.
And he gets so mad at the court system
'Cause the crooks don't get any time.

And each day when he leaves for work,
He prays to God above.
Please bring me home after my shift
So I can see the ones I love.

But tonight he stops a speeding car,
He's alone down this ole' highway.
It's just a little traffic infraction.
He does it everyday.

Well, he walks up to the driver's window,
And his badge is shining bright.
He asked the guy for a driver's license,
When a shot rang through the night.

Yes, the bullet hit its mark,
Striking the officer in the chest.
But the Department's budget didn't buy
Each officer a bullet-proof vest.

So he lay on the ground bleeding.
His blood wasn't blue - His blood was red.
And briefly he thought of his loved ones
'Cause in a moment the officer was dead.

In the news they told the story
Of how this officer had died.
And some who listened cared less,
But those who loved him cried.

Well, they buried him in uniform
With his badge pinned on his chest.
He even had his revolver,
He died doing his best.

Kevin,
I never met you, but I had the wonderful pleasure of meeting your Mom for the first time on Saturday, July 14, 2007. I have included you, your son and your parents in my prayers. Your Mom spoke so highly of you and she is protecting and taking great care of your son.
Thank you for protecting NYC.

I met Kevin a couple of times around Manhattan North and he always had some words of encouragement for his fellow officers. Always willing to offer his help in any way that he could. Rest in Peace, Brother in bue
