The family of Kent Police Officer Rob McCuistion has invited the public to attend a memorial celebration of his life Saturday, March 5. Services will start 11 a.m. at the First Evangelical Presbyterian Church, 19800 108 Avenue S.E., in Kent.
McCuistion was a 13-year veteran of the Kent Police Department at the time of his death. He died from injuries sustained during an early-morning accident Feb. 24 on Kersey Way Southeast. While driving home, his car left the roadway and collided with a tree. The cause of the crash remains under investigation by the Auburn Police Department.
Saturday’s service will incorporate traditional Police Honors while also recognizing McCuistion’s achievements and contributions in life. Honor guard units from the Kent Police Department and Kent Regional Fire Authority will participate in the service. Representatives from local and regional Law enforcement are also expected. A private committal service for family and friends will follow at the Mountain View Cemetery in Lakewood.
