Congrats Kevin…. Now its your turn to run for sheriff.
Congratulations, you have set the bar high during your career for fairness , humanity , and making yourself approachable. You will be sorely missed. We should have more like you. Enjoy your new path in life. Good luck.
Congratulations!!! That is an awesome accomplishment! So happy to see you at the store and look forward to more of those great sandwiches!!
Kevin served the community as a fine officer, Sheriff Morgan should sit down and review his subordinats records to ensure that good people are not overlooked. Kevin was never involved with the McNesby hits and scandals, He is clean! and should have been promoted to sergeant long ago. I think Mr Morgan should look at what some of his staff were doing in the 70s and 80s guys that have been promoted! My what a $160.00 would buy in 1977.
Kevin I have know you since 1974. You have come a long way. Good luck
“Honorary” promotion to Sergeant? What a slap in the face. He gave the county, communtiy and the ECSO 27 years and he was never promoted to Sergeant while on active duty, are you kidding me?!
Thank you sir for your service to Escambia County, may the good Lord keep his hand over you and your family as your ease into your retirement.
Kevin, Hope you enjoy your retirement to the fullest, You have Always been a Fair and Just Law enforcement Officer and you will be missed by all, we will see ya soon when we stop in for a chocolate and vanilla shake
THANKS FOR ALL YOU HAVE DONE
FOR Escambia County
