Faithful Partner • Loyal Protector • Heroic Heart
End of Watch: 8/5/2025
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Canine Deputy Molly. She was a dedicated drug detection dog and beloved partner to Detective Gary Garboski. They served side by side for over seven years.
Molly began her service with the Levy County Sheriff’s Office in 2017. A highly trained and fiercely intelligent working dog, she joined the force and quickly became an invaluable member of the department. Throughout her career, she assisted in countless investigations, helping to remove dangerous substances from our streets and ensuring the safety of our community. Her work led to numerous arrests, the seizure of illegal narcotics, and—most importantly—the saving of lives. Molly and Detective Garboski were assigned to the Patrol Division where they quickly proved themselves to be an effective and dedicated team.
Molly and Detective Garboski transferred to the Drug Task Force Unit in 2019 where they continued impactful work in the fight against illegal narcotics. Molly loved her job and lived for the reward of chasing her toy. Off duty, she was a beloved member of Detective Garboski’s family and spent her time surrounded by love and companionship.
Molly was more than just a working dog—she was a loyal partner, a valued teammate, and truly the best dog ever. Molly passed peacefully with her partner and family by her side, honored until the very end. Her presence will be deeply missed by Detective Garboski, his family and everyone at the Levy County Sheriff’s Office.
Rest easy, K-9 Molly. Your watch is over. We have the watch now. You served with honor and heart.
