The longtime firefighter and police officer announced Monday that he is retiring from the Greendale Police Department, where he has served many years as the Assistant Chief.

“We are going to miss having him around but wish him nothing but the best with the next chapter of his remarkable career. We can’t thank you enough for your lifetime of commitment and courage protecting the residents and visitors of Greendale,” reads a statement from Greendale Police.
