WILLIAMSON COUNTY, Texas - Kevin Stofle, the Williamson County constable for Precinct 3, has passed away suddenly, says the county.
To honor him, the Pct. 3 Constable's Office will be closed all week.
County Judge Bill Gravell released a statement on Stofle's passing, saying
"Kevin Stofle was one of the most honorable men I know. He was a man of integrity, truth, and character. He dedicated his life to serving others, which he did with courage and commitment. He was a role model for not only the deputies who served under him in the Precinct 3 Constable's Office, but those he taught or mentored along the way.
"More than a dedicated public servant, Kevin Stofle was a loyal son, brother, husband, and father. He was completely devoted to his family. The best way that we can honor the life of Kevin Stofle is to give his family time and space to grieve."
