His son posted a goodbye to his dad. I don't know how to link things on my phone but it should be easy enough to find. A go fund me page has already raised $76,000 for his family and there is going to be an FOP fundraiser.
I do recall one funny incident when I rode wirh him. He git a call that a car hit a pole. We come to the place and there is the car, but no driver. There is however a guy sitting in some steps. Sonny asks him if he saw anything. Nope. Any chance this is your car? Nope. Would it be ok if I patted you down? I dont care. Sonny pats him down and finds some keys. He says this key is for a Chrysler and that's a Chrysler. You sure it's not your car? Not mine. Look if you tell me its yours Ill write you a ticket and be in my way. If I find out you are lying, you are going to jail. Not mine. Im going to go over to the car and put these keys in the ignition, and if the car starts you are going to jail unless you tell me now and I will just cite you. Not mine. So Sonny goes over and starts the car, and we took the guy to jail.
