1 of 2 To ease the sting of this tragic loss, on Monday, Dec. 21, Border Patrol agents from the Blythe Station gave 2-year-old Zephyr, the son of agent agent William Lechausse â who died unexpectedly in Februrary â and his wife of nine years Kandus, an early Christmas. Among the gifts Zephyr received was a Jeep which agents had painted with a green stripe to match a Border Patrol vehicle.
