It is with a heavy heart that I let everyone know that our brother and friend, Sergeant Jay Claxton, passed away last night as a result of a traffic collision on Buccola Street.
Jay has long-served this agency with distinction and if you knew Jay he was your friend. Jay was the type of person that would show up any time of the day or night if you needed help. Jay Claxton was a long time personal friend and I will miss him greatly. I am asking everyone to go to the Lord in prayer to ask for comfort for his family, and all of those who feel the loss of his passing. There are no words to express the depth of loss we are all feeling at the Sheriff’s Office.

Sheriff Christopher Forbis

“So we are always of good courage. We know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord, for we walk by faith, not by sight. Yes, we are of good courage, and we would rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord.”
II Corinthians 5:6-8
