An elderly woman named Geraldeine called her police station in Arizona to report that her husband had passed away. When officers arrived, they tried to comfort her. As they walked around the home to see if she needed any house work done, they noticed her front door lock was broken.
Sgt. Jeff Turney felt compelled to help. He knew the lock was unsafe, and with her husband gone, Mrs. Turney had no one around to help her with those important tasks. Using his own Home Depot card, he sent an officer to the nearby Home Depot to pick up a front door lock. Sgt. Turney then got his tool bag and installed Mrs. Tabor's brand new lock himself.
"When the coroner finally came and got my husband, I walked over here and he was working on it, and I have never seen that before, that's a new one," said Geraldeine.
Geraldeine is still working through the pain of losing her husband.
News of the kindhearted officer going above and beyond for the grieving widow is now going viral. With all the negative headlines surrounding police officers these days, it's stories like this one that need to be shared.
