GoFundMe set up for retired Bridgeport cop’s funeral costs

BRIDGEPORT — A GoFundMe campaign has been set up to collect funeral funds for a retired Bridgeport police officer who was taken off life support Thursday night. Herbie Mack, who served the city as a Bridgeport Police Officer for years, has died, city spokesman Av Harris confirmed Friday. During his time on the force, Mack served on the department’s mounted unit. “His wife had to make the hard decision last night to remove him off life support,” said Joe Peryer, who said he is married to Mack’s niece. With the costs of funerals, the family has created a GoFundMe campaign to relieve some of that financial burden.
