Most Recent Reflection
View all 75 ReflectionsI was just a 19 year old kid when I met Louie at the LA Fitness in Diamond Bar. He was a bodybuilder and a cop and represented everything I wanted to be in life. He mentored me in the gym and gave me advice about a careers in law enforcement. I ultimately went to the police academy because of him. I still weight train because of him. RIP bother…you were taken way too soon!
