BREVARD COUNTY, FLORIDA — I would like to personally thank all of the business owners and members of the community who stood along the streets of Titusville today in honor of the Funeral Precession for Deputy Dan Thrush of the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office Motor Unit.
As the Motorcade and family drove along U.S. 1 and Garden Street I was proud to see the incredible support of the many citizens and business owners who stood along the roadway paying their respects to Deputy Thrush. Some of them were saluting as he passed or standing with their hand over their hearts and to us that meant the world.
On behalf of our agency thank you for all of your support during this time of loss to our Brevard County Sheriff’s Office family.
