I have the pleasure of knowing Vinny Riela and even though he doesn’t see himself as a hero in this story—the rest of us do. Had he not called this in, so many things could have been so much worse! What if Mr. Haley had caused an accident and seriously hurt or even killed himself or god forbid someone else? Or he could have just kept driving aimlessly and ended up in the company of some not so nice people who could have hurt or killed him, for money or his truck. Who knows-there is so much evil in this world nowadays.
I am very happy that this ended up the way it did.
And thank you to the officers as well. Everybodys involvement made a happy ending for Mr. Haley and his family. This is a perfect example of the good that comes out of people staying involved in their communities and looking out for each other! Thank you to everyone involved !!!

A heartfelt Thank you to Santa Rosa County Sheriff’s Deputy Brian Middleton and Sgt. Todd Reaves. We extend many thanks to you and your department for all you did to find our father and getting him back home to us safe. We really appreciate you guys for taking time to see after him and all of the contacts made to us during this very emotional time. Our dad is doing well and glad to be back home. We Thank God for you and how God used you to bless our family. Keep doing what you do and we will keep you in our prayers. It is a blessing to know that there are officers out there that do their jobs. My brother and I are glad to have had you all to be the one’s that helped our family find our love one. Many blessing to you all!
Sincere Thanks,

Thank you Mr Riela, for being alert and responsible! Lord only knows how many lives were spared- perfect officer response, as well! Prevention is the key to avoiding this kind of scare in the future. We has to hide my fathers car keys when he deteriorated mentally.
