************************************************** *****
We all lose someone very valuable and good when we lose an Officer of the Law. For our Officers... this pain is something that never really goes away for them. Now... not only has Hamilton County lost a fellow Officer, but they lost their leader, too.
Goodbye Sheriff. I know your County is hurting right now... as we all mourn your passing.
Rest with God.
