The Kimberling City Police Department extends our deepest condolences to the family, friends, and colleagues of Missouri State Highway Patrol Corporal Gary Daniels.

We join law enforcement agencies across Missouri in mourning this tremendous loss. Our hearts are with the men and women of the Missouri State Highway Patrol as they navigate the grief and heartbreak that accompanies the loss of one of their own.

Corporal Daniels dedicated his life to serving and protecting others. His service, sacrifice, and commitment to his community will not be forgotten.

To our law enforcement family and all those who may be struggling during difficult times, please remember that support is available and seeking help is a sign of strength. You do not have to face life's challenges alone.

If you or someone you know is in crisis, call or text 988 to reach the Su***de & Crisis Lifeline for free, confidential support available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Please keep Corporal Daniels' loved ones and the Missouri State Highway Patrol in your thoughts and prayers.



🇺🇸💙 We honor Corporal Daniels' memory and stand alongside our brothers and sisters at the Missouri State Highway Patrol during this difficult time.

When Corporal Gary Daniels graduated from the Missouri State Highway Patrol Law Enforcement Academy in 2015, he had established the first bond in a trooper’s career: He would forever be a member of the 101st Recruit Class. Decades later, troopers can name everyone in their recruit class. Recruits make it through the rigorous six-month bootcamp-style academy because they learn they are part of a team. A team in which they can rely on one another when their lives are on the line. Over the next decade, Gary established other immutable bonds within the Patrol – first in Troop C; then Troop A, where he could be closer to his family in Kansas; then part of the Patrol’s recruiting division; and, most recently, at the Patrol’s academy, where he could help shape the careers of young recruits.
Each current Patrol member and the larger Patrol family ache over the tragic loss of Corporal Gary Daniels. Missouri Department of Public Safety Director Mark James, a member of Patrol’s 48th Recruit Class, said, “Our troopers are hurting because Gary Daniels was a valued member of the Patrol family with a stellar career. He recruited and encouraged young men and women that they could succeed in our organization and, then in the academy, he helped shape the future of the Patrol. The Patrol and the entire DPS family mourn this terrible loss. Our thoughts are with Gary’s family and all who loved him.”
We will remember Gary Daniels for his selfless service to the public and for upholding the values of the Missouri State Highway Patrol. He will forever be part of the Patrol team.
If you or someone you know is in mental health, su***de, or substance use crisis, help is available. Please reach out to the 988 Su***de & Crisis Lifeline by calling or texting 988 or chatting online at 988 Lifeline. Services are free, confidential, and available 24/7.
