The Police Benevolent Foundation and the Alabama Division of the Southern States Police Benevolent Association announced Thursday that they have created the “Officer Kevin Blue Recovery Fund.”
Blue, a six-year veteran of the Piedmont Police Department, was diagnosed earlier this year with Stage 4 Brain Cancer after going to the doctor due to memory problems. He was given six months to live. All donations to the fund are tax-deductible, with 100% of contributions going to Blue. You can donate here.
He is a graduate of Jacksonville State University and was an all-state athlete in high school.
This is how one officer from a neighboring law enforcement agency described him – “When Kevin was telling everyone about his diagnosis, his first concern was how he had been carrying a gun and badge while he was sick; his first thought was about how he could have potentially hurt someone. He wasn’t concerned about himself.”
