I didn’t know him that well but knew him a little bit when he worked at the 1200 Jail many years ago, and he was always polite during my interactions with him. Needless to say, I was shocked upon hearing the news. This is a very sad loss for his family and his HCSO colleagues who knew and/or worked with him, and a stark reminder that we should make each day count since tomorrow is never promised. My condolences and sympathy to his family and friends during this very difficulty time.
