Kevin Patrick Mehaffey

Memorial Reef

Kevin lost his life on May 15, 2020. In his 30 years of life, Kevin had accomplished so much. In 2015 when he joined Station 69 as a Firefighter/Paramedic and in January of 2020 was promoted to Driver Engineer of Station 99. He gained respect and recognition beyond his years and is the only firefighter in Pembroke Pines to receive the esteemed Medal of Valor. Kevin was studying to become a Lieutenant, and no doubt would have become Fire Chief someday.

Kevin was also a boat captain, broker, rescue diver, and free diver, always ensuring the safety of his dive buddies and respect of the ocean. Reef Cells created a memorial reef off the coast of South Florida in his memory.

Kevin was in all essence dedicated, selfless, kindhearted, and trustworthy, with a smile that lit up the room. He loved his family and friends beyond measure, and met the love of his life, his bride-to-be Meagan, in 2019. Kevin was a hero among us and is now above us. His legacy lives on through his greatest accomplishment, his daughter Sydney, born 3 months after Kevin’s passing, in August of 2020.

How our Frag Plugs Work.

New Coral Lok frag plugs are revolutionizing the way living corals are attached to underwater reefs. These coral fasteners can immediately attach a living coral to a coral reef with a simple twist. The screw shaped base of the Coral Lok frag plug is designed to easily and securely mate into the female threaded Coral Lok receiver. The coral is fixed and ready to grow over the plug base and onto the reef rock
