The incident of Trooper Elizabeth Jones-Story is genuinely saddening. Her life should not have been lost that day. She was more than just a trooper. Elizabeth seemed to be a loving wife and had a bright future ahead of her. It brings joy to me that she wanted to expand her farm, and it makes me happy that her husband, Robert, is continuing her dream.
