Deputies affected by flooding helped by Florida Deputy Sheriff's Assoc.

Posted

Our Okeechobee County Sheriff’s Office family has been reminded of the strength of community and the importance of standing together during difficult times.

As a result of the recent flooding, Deputy Sheriff Andrew Wolgamott and Detention Deputy Justin Castrejon tragically lost their homes and personal belongings.

Today, the Florida Deputy Sheriffs Association presented each of them with a check to help support their recovery and rebuilding efforts.

Additionally, each received a check through the Okeechobee County Sheriff’s Office Employee Assistance Program, made possible by the Skip Bryant Foundation.

We are incredibly grateful to the Florida Deputy Sheriffs Association and the Skip Bryant Foundation for stepping up to support our own during such a difficult time.

Our OCSO family is more than a team. We are family, and we stand together.

Together we will rebuild.
