Yesterday morning at line up we had the very unexpected news that one of our eldest officers (civilian employee) had passed away..it has been such a shock. Our new Lt had been wonderful in dealing with this and the support for our department has been astounding....They are planning on a huge funeral with the color guard and everything..
He was very well liked and will be sorely missed.He was a character who you could never forget once you met him and had a hilarious sense of humor that could make you cry he was so funny.
Thank you for letting me share..it's just such a shock still and hasn't sunk in really..It's that reminder again for me to live each day and love fully all those I care about and quit hiding myself away from people who care about me.

Bree first of all thank you for sharing his story with us. Your loss is never gonna be completly filled because im sure he was one of a kind. Im sure he will watch over yall. I think the funerals they have for our police and firemen are so sad but so respectful in the same sense.
