In a last act of service, the Mississippi sheriff's deputy who lost his life Wednesday in the surf off of the Sandestin Golf & Beach Resort saved the life of his own 10-year-old son.
His son was one of "easily hundreds, if not thousands" of lives that 33-year-old Deputy William K. Nichols saved in his years of work with the DeSoto County Sheriff's Department's Search and Rescue division, according to DeSoto County Chief Sheriff's Deputy Justin Smith.
