In 1986, Connecticut had its first Torch Run with a few legs converging onto the campus of the University of Connecticut at Storrs. The run then became a statewide event involving several more cities and towns. Since its inception, the Connecticut Law Enforcement Torch Run has grown into the largest grassroots fund-raising event for Special Olympics Connecticut.

Kevin always had a sense of adventure and a particular gift for meeting people and finding out what made them unique. He loved to try new things, travel and see new places.
