I so enjoyed working with Harvey Hicks. He always had a smile on his face. He was such a joy to work with. I worked with him from 1992 until he left in 2002 from HCPD. He will surely be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with the family now.

Capt. Hicks was well respected by the line officers. A common sense leader that looked out for his men.He made sure I didn't get blasted by a drug store burglar on a cold winter night. I owed my life to his ability to lead and act in critical situations.
