Since the beginning of
his memorial, over 100,000 of Kevin's key rings have been
distributed.
Something that started out as a local memorial in 1997, has become a
worldwide memorial since 1999.
Preserving the memory of our son, Kevin and hopefully helping others
become aware of the dangers related to driving under the influence. |

Within 12 hours
of Kevin's crash, Kristin, Kevin's older sister, and I had discussed
a project that would help people remember Kevin and hopefully learn
from his tragic mistake.
We
decided upon key rings in the maroon and gold colors of Harding High
School, Kevin's alma mater. The key rings, designed by Kristin, bear
the message, ?In memory of Kevin Brockway ? Think of me before
you turn the key! Please don't drink and drive. Your friend, Kevin.?
The key ring comes packaged with Kevin's story.
We thought we might take them to the high school or just around the
community. However, a local television station did a report and
suggested that I get a post office box so they could give the
address to viewers who might want a key ring.
We were astonished at the response. Hundreds of people sent requests
during the first few days. Today, we have distributed a total of
100,000 key rings. Some of those have also been sent around the
world.
Since the crash, I have become an outspoken voice against drunk
driving. I have spoken at dozens of schools, churches, offices, and
community events. If you would be interested in having me visit your
community, school, or organization, please
contact me. I
can also provide your school, group, or organization with a large
quantity of key rings. Please
contact me
for more information and estimated cost.

Kevin's car was donated and is maintained by Mothers Against Drunk
Driving. It is used as part of a traveling exhibit. The Celebrity
is bent almost in half where it wrapped around the tree. It often
accompanies my presentations.
