View all 11 ReflectionsI did Tim’s background. Everyone spoke highly of him and I was glad to recommend him for hire.
We lost him way too soon after only 11 months in uniform. Tim was from a law enforcement family and would have made our world better. Rest easy young hero. You’re never going to be forgotten!
