Mayor
of Emergency Service
In upstate
Carmel, Police Officer Stephen Driscoll of Emergency Service
Squad 4 was remembered for his deep dedication.
" 'Mayor
of emergency service' - that's how he was known," Officer
Kevin Donohue told several thousand mourners at St. James the
Apostle Church.
Another officer,
James O'Connor, remembered how much Driscoll wanted to join the
Emergency Service Unit.
"Stephen
couldn't swim - he was afraid of heights - but he wanted to join
the ESU," O'Connor said.
"There
wasn't anything he couldn't do for anyone else if they needed
it,"
said the Rev. William Kalaidjian. "He would be the epitome
of helpfulness."
Driscoll, 38,
served in the Navy before joining the Police Department in 1991.
He is survived by his wife of 20 years, Ann, and their 15-year-old
son, Barry.
