I share in the loss of my old partner at SCV Station. We were in patrol and detectives together. We performed like a fine tuned engine. Jim was Best Man at my wedding. He carried a special pride for his military and law enforcement careers. We fondly called each other "Pard". He will be missed by all.
Sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers for the family.
My prayers for strength and peace for you all during this sad time
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. May Mr. Gates Rest In Peace with honor. Robert I remember your dad fondly and he raised a son to be proud of. All our love, Michelle Church Wells
Uncle Arvis was always a hero in my mind. He showed what a true patriot is made of. I will always remember and love him.
