To the family of SA Carey. I never your husband / father. I was in NAC 89-4. Because of the terrible tragedy that stole his life from your family, EVOC training at Quantico had been suspended. However, Not many details were provided. I entered through NYO and spent 8 years in Fed Plaza and 12 years on Long Island. I pray that the Lord comforted you as He has promised to never leave us or forsake us. It would have been an honor and privilege to have met SA Carey and his precious pup. My Dad's name was Scott and it is a beautiful name. A verse that has comforted us is found in Revelation 21:4 "The Lord will wipe away all tears from their eyes ...". Amen.
