To the family, friends, and co-workers of Officer Nava,

With a heavy heart, I send my deepest condolences. We lost a fellow officer in November, and it just seems as though God is short-handed on His detail and needed a few good officers. Officer Nava, watch and guide us from above and tell our brother Brian that we miss him down here. God speed brother.
