One year ago today, Deputy Andrew Nunez made the ultimate sacrifice while serving and protecting our community.
Not a day goes by that we don’t remember his courage, dedication, and the sacrifice he made.
My heart and prayers remain with Andrew’s family, friends, and fellow deputies as we continue to honor his life, his service, and the legacy he leaves behind. When you’re later, our promise remains the same. We will never forget.
