My aunt has worked as his secretary for 16 years. This is a very sad day for their office. He will be appointing an interim sheriff through November as he is leaving end of this month.

I've met him several times he was a very gracious man and you could tell he loved his department of over 18k employees. He spoke at my grandfathers funeral (my grandfather was a retired commander for the department).

I wish him a very happy retirement!
