Bruno was such a sweet guy. Loved it when he was the officer who came by for the report on the incident. He was professional yet friendly. Always had a smile to greet you. Never got in the nurses or doctors way, rather pitched in to help. He was always a welcome site and is missed to this day. Being an ER Nurse I developed the habit of patting them on their backs to say goodbye. This was so I could check for Kevlar vests. Houston being so very, very hot the officers would sometimes opt out of the vest. Bruno caught on quick. He would knock on his vest so I knew it was on. Great guy. Miss you Bruno.
