San Antonio TX July 21 2020
The city of San Antonio is mourning the loss of another employee due to complications from COVID-19, in addition to the passing of San Antonio Fire Apparatus Mechanic Hector Rodriguez.
City Manager Erik Walsh announced an Alamodome Temporary Security Guard, whose name has not yet been released, has also succumbed to the coronavirus.
The security guard worked seasonally since 2006, city officials said.
Walsh issued this statement on both Rodriguez and the security guard’s deaths:
”Today, it’s with sadness that I share that we are grieving the loss of two of our own City of San Antonio teammates. Please join me in keeping their loved ones in your thoughts as they go through this difficult time. This pandemic has tested our City’s resolve over the last few months but today, it hit especially close to home. Let’s all do our part to protect our frontline workers by staying home when possible or wearing a mask and social distancing when you can’t. Lives are depending on you.”
