Friends, family, and community gathered Sunday evening to remember a longtime Richardson ISD school resource officer who lost his battle to COVID-19 last week.

“The profession, it’s very hard to stay six feet apart. It’s very hard to maintain all those protocols that the CDC tries to mandate,” Mata said.

Chief Eddie Garcia said the gathering at the department’s Northeast Substation was the least they could do to honor a life that positively touched so many others. “You’re going to laugh with your brothers and sisters. You’re going to bleed with your brothers and sisters and you’re going to cry with your brothers and sisters if you do this job long enough,” said Garcia. “And the lives that he touched, today was a great indication and very indicative of how he led his life.”“RISD has suffered a tremendous loss with the passing of Officer Chris Gibson.
