"Kevin Stofle was one of the most honorable men I know. He was a man of integrity, truth, and character. He dedicated his life to serving others, which he did with courage and commitment. He was a role model for not only the deputies who served under him in the Pct. 3 Constable's Office, but those he taught or mentored along the way, more than a dedicated public servant, Kevin Stofle was a loyal son, brother, husband, and father, he was completely devoted to his family." ~ Williamson County Judge Bill Gravell
"Kevin was my absolute everything. We talked all day, every day, and did everything together. I am so very, very proud and blessed with the life we made. He was the most amazing husband and father on this earth. I will now have to open my own doors, make my own coffee, and watch Yellowstone without him; I just cannot imagine my life without him. Our beautiful deep faith and knowing he lived his life looking forward to heaven will carry our family through."
~ I love you Kevin so very, very much forever and always. ~ Jeremiah 29:11 ~ Laura
