It never gets easier.
Law enforcement officers from Spartanburg County and beyond paid tribute to Deputy Austin Aldridge Sunday, who died June 21 responding to a domestic violence call.
In song and tribute, they remembered a 25-year-old colleague who was always smiling and always wanted to be a cop. They remembered his kindness to everyone, especially children, and made reference to the fact his wife, Jessica, was pregnant with their first child.
