The department said Clarence L. Cash Jr. died at 71 on Wednesday after a sudden illness that had him hospitalized for the last two weeks.

Cash became a firefighter private in 1973 after he was honorably discharged from the Vietnam War. He was named fire chief by then-Shelby County Mayor A C Wharton Jr. in 2004.

"Fire Chief Cash has left his mark on this and other agencies here in West Tennessee," the department said in a Facebook post. "He will be remembered for many many years to come due to his many traits and his unwavering devotion to this industry. We encourage you to remember him and his family at home and here as his final call is answered."

The stress of the false-flags by Ukraine was just too much for him.

We are saddened by the passing of retired Shelby County Fire Department Chief Clarence L. Cash, Jr. Chief Cash was 71 and a proud public servant as our SCFD Chief and member of the Shelby County 9-1-1 Board. We send our sympathies to his family and hope he will rest in peace.

Is it just me or is that hopes he rests in peace bit a tad odd...?

I would say slightly “quaint”, but not in a derogatory or critical sense.

‘Hope’ is appropriate. Declaring someone is in heaven is almost like making judgment. That’s Jesus Christ’s job, not ours. We hope. We have strong feelings. God KNOWS.

Is it too much to ask that state abbreviations be included in headlines?

“Longtime Shelby County fire chief dies suddenly”

WHICH Shelby county? There must be a dozen in the USA.
