“Mr. Speaker, I rise today to remember fallen Deputy Steven Sandberg, who was shot and killed in the line of duty this past Sunday in St. Cloud, Minnesota. Deputy Sandberg's death was both senseless and tragic, but we must remember him for the heroic way he chose to live his life. Deputy Sandberg was an honorable man who served his community for 24 years. He began working for the Aitkin County Sheriff's Office in 1991 and worked as an investigator for the past 20 years. Every day for more than two decades Deputy Sandberg put his life on the line to protect others, and we will be forever grateful for his service. Our community has suffered a major loss, and we will never forget what this exceptional man has done for us. Our thoughts and prayers are with Steven's wife Kristi and daughter Cassie as well as his many friends and colleagues during this difficult time. ____________________”
