  1. This is fluff nonsense! What’s next? Pictures of babies and puppies? Keep the bank robbery and sex-crimes stories coming!

    Great work, KCE. (Usually.)

    1. Hey bird watcher, we need feel good stories once in a while. As we skim thru the pages and pages of KCE reporting, it is filled with all those who embarrassed their own names so often and so badly that they will never have this feel good experience or report. Salem Lakes characters for instance will never get such a chance. The various supervisors at county, the Pleasant Prairie people that WINTER would like to see gone all are examples. It IS nice to see this feel good photo essay, so thank you Kevin and congrats to those featured.

  2. Nice coverage here Kevin ! Seriously !

    The exhaustive résumé and list of commendations that you told us about not to mention who their families are and how they are overall good community citizens.

    Take work to put all that together not to mention actually being there taking all the photos.
    Good to have a good story. Also good to know who’s Running into burning buildings for us.

    Don’t know when you sleep.

  3. Speaking of fluff, I’m going to add a little more. Thank you KM and your KCE for serving our/your community in your own special way. While you may not receive an official award or promotion, accept this as our reward to you recognizing your commitment and love for our/your community.

    Many of us may or may not agree with you, or an article or with each other on many different subject matters but we are lucky to have a platform to openly express our thoughts and opinions (free speech) about subject matters introduced here that we personally care about. It’s clear many people come here to get/give local news and opinions and if we couldn’t engage freely, we would be living in a communist country/police state and without you and your site, there would be no such place for Kenosha to come together and have opportunity for dialogue.

    Thank you for what you do and as always, God Bless you and may He truly bless all of us in this little slice of Creation we refer to as Kenosha but more importantly, home.

    1. Maybe it is important to be in the job to gain the accolades. DEI? Didn’t earn it only works in school sports and participation trophies. Equal chance not equity for unearned. That said, some kids grow up dreaming of being firemen, policemen, doctors, others not so much. Dennis, tour the schools, promote these professions. Make change. Til then, all we see you do is crybaby.

  5. I’ve known the Leipzig brothers since they were in grade school. Their mother and I were grade and high school classmates. Bob Pharr a Veledrome champ and Olympian is their maternal grandfather. The Leipzig brothers were raised to be good citizens and to serve the community.
