KPD officer dies
Kosciusko Police Officer Stanley Rowe died Thursday morning at Central Mississippi Medical Center in Jackson after being hospitalized for several weeks, said Kosciusko Police Chief R.J. Adams in a press release. Rowe was hospitalized in March after suffering a stroke while driving.
"Stan was well thought of by his fellow officers and by the citizens of Kosciusko … I found him to be an officer who would answer the call for help, no matter when or what the circumstances. He had the traits of a real man - truthful, faithful, dependable and he had more than his share of courage. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him," Adams said in the press release.
“He was a good man,” said Kosciusko Police Officer Dirk Thayer. “There was no fear in him.”
The 46-year-old officer had been employed with the police department since January of 2005.
