COBA is saddened to report the passing of recently retired Correction Officer Charles "Judy" Garland, after a brave battle with cancer.

Judy retired due to his illness, shortly after celebrating his 39th year as a Nassau County Correction Officer.

He was a fixture on midnights for many many years and will be sorely missed by all those who loved and worked with him.

Arrangements are unknown at this time. We will provide that information when it becomes available.

On behalf of the Nassau County Correction Officers Benevolent Association, and all Nassau Correction Officers, we extend our heartfelt condolences to Charlie Garland's family, his friends and all those who grieve his loss.

Rest in Peace Judy
