Скачать или смотреть Funeral service for fallen KCKPD officer Hunter Simoncic

Family, friends, fellow officers, and the Kansas City, Kansas community gathered to honor the life of Officer Hunter Simoncic on Wednesday. Sept. 3, 2025. The funeral service was held at Children’s Mercy Park, where thousands came together to pay their respects to the fallen KCKPD officer.

Amid the mourning, Sarah Latham reached back into her bank of memories of her friend and drew out a moment of joy.

She and Hunter Simoncic had been together to see a favorite artist in concert. They blared music in her car, hyped each other up for the show and sang at the top of their lungs. They laughed at themselves, got perfect photos and danced together.

“I think we both lost our voices that night from singing so loudly,” she said.

“He made this world brighter,” she said of Simoncic, the 26-year-old Kansas City, Kansas, police officer who died last week after he was allegedly struck by the driver of a stolen vehicle who was fleeing police.
