Deputy Tate I did not have the pleasure of ever meeting you but several deputies from our department had the honor of going through the academy with you. We all take the oath to do an unthankful job and often we carry on like it is nothing. Deputy Tate YOU ARE A TRUE HERO Unfortunately I have felt the pain and grief your families are having but be assured that everyone will carry out your legacy through whatever journeys may come. Rest In Piece You and Your Family are in our prayers. Thank You for YOUR SERVICE my brother...
