Deputies escorted a young boy for his first day of class to honor his father, who was killed in the line of duty in July.
Sheriff’s deputies escorted a young boy to his first day of fourth grade just one month after his father was killed in the line of duty.
WSB-TV reports that Cade’s father, 28-year-old Nicolas Dixon, was fatally shot while attempting to stop a stolen car in July. He had been with the department for three years, serving as a jailer until October 2018, after which he transferred to patrol. He was the father of two boys: Cade, 9 and Colt, who is 4 months old.
He adds that Caden was having a rough Wednesday morning because he didn’t want to go to school without his dad being there. “The actions of caring and support for both Caden and Stephanie only reinforce what the men and women of our agency already know. The Hall County Sheriff’s Office is a family. We come together as one in both difficult and joyful times.”— Tony Thomas July 8, 2019 Many people commented on the Facebook post showing the deputies’ selfless support of the Dixon family and thanked them for taking care of the young boy.
