We were honored to participate in the funeral procession for Deputy Foster. May he Rest in Peace.

We’re saddened by the recent and unexpected passing of our teammate, Harris County Sheriff's Office Deputy Melvin Foster.
Melvin was an incredible man and public servant. He leaves behind a strong legacy. He served Harris County for almost 15 years.

He played college football for the Iowa Hawkeyes and appeared in the Rose Bowl in 1991. He was awarded USA Today All-American, All-State honors. He was a member of the Dallas Cowboys in 1992.

He was an impactful leader and was beloved by his teammates. We extend our deepest condolences to his family. Melvin will be missed and never forgotten.
