Sgt. Best was my first Sergeant when I started in field training as a patrol officer. He was always so helpful and kind. I vividly remember one of the first nights working for him and how we stood outside of the department while he showed me picture after picture of his wife and two kiddos. He couldn’t stop smiling. Thank you for everything you did for me. Rest easy Sarge, we’ve got it from here. -NMBDPS 290
