The Man of Steele Posted July 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 RIP how old was he when he got the record for oldest cop? http://www.policelink.com/news/articles/111168-oldest-active-special-deputy-in-the-united-states-is-laid-to-rest The Funeral was yesterday it was really hard for me but I was blown away by the Sheriffs office they did a great job. He was laid to rest at union cemetery yesterday and had a 21 gun salute and a bunch of bag pipers. The FCSO also did a last communications call to his badge number twice and then said he was out of service and may he rest in peace over the county radio (I cried like a bitch) any ways I have had a week from hell and luckily grandpa left me about 4 cases of scotch.
