He is survived by his wife, Christy Lyn; his daughters, Regan and Presley; his mother Cheryl, his father Doug, four siblings, Chris, Andrea, Rick, and Joel who is a Border Patrol Agent, and his step-mother Donetta.
Another Border Patrol Agent was also wounded during the incident and has been treated and released from the hospital. We pray for his rapid and complete recovery.
