John Dear I still cannot believe the world, life has gone on without you here. And yet your killer Edgardo Sanchez-Fuentes still lives on Death Row San Quentin. I doubt he will ever be put to death. I just don't understand it. But it is our crazy world. You a beautiful man, kind, funny, a great friend, a father, an Officer serving to protect, you deserve to be here! I will never forget you John Dear. You changed me, my life, and I am forever grateful to you, to God for bringing you to me. I love you deeply and forever.
