SCHOOL SECURITY GUARD COLLAPSES-DIES ON DUTY

FEBRUARY 2 2012

YOUNGSTOWN OH – A security officer who worked for years for a city school system collapsed and died while on duty Wednesday afternoon.

Sheriff Randall Wellington said Robert Conway, 56, of Youngstown, was working at Chaney High School when he collapsed with no warning while talking to someone.
Conway was also a reserve deputy sheriff.

School officials said they believe no students were in the area when Conway collapsed.

Wellington said doctors at St. Elizabeth Health Center said it appears Conway had a massive heart attack.

Conway had worked for years in the schools for the school board and had been a reserve with the Sheriff’s Office for 15 or 20 years, Wellington said. Conway was also a reserve officer for the city police department for several years, Wellington said.

”He was a good family man. A good father and husband,” Wellington said. ”Whenever you needed something, he was there at a moment’s notice.”

Sheriff’s Sgt. T.J. Assion, president of Mahoning County Fraternal Order of Police Lodge 141, said Conway liked his job in the schools and the students liked him.

”He liked what he did,” Assion did. ”He loved those kids and those kids loved him. I’m going to miss him like crazy. Bob was just a great guy.”

Karen Ingraham, city schools communications director, said grief counselors would be at the school today, and for as long as needed, to meet with students and staff.
