He served seven years with Montgomery Police Department and was currently serving with ALEA Marine Patrol Division. He never met anyone he did not like and this was reflected in his desire to be an organ donor.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made in his memory to one's favorite Law Enforcement charity.
