What a tremendous loss for the community we serve. The North Myrtle Beach Dept. of Public Safety is very supportive of our ER. Sgt. Best answered several calls to keep our staff and patients safe. He was always kind, respectful, and dependable. It was an honor to serve this community alongside him.
