Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Robert: It is hard to believe you have been gone for almost ten years. It seems like only yesterday you were pulling pranks in the academy or reminding me to wake you up when you dozed off in the classroom after swimming. You were always such a character and you always made me smile!

It sounds like your son has become a fine young man, I am sure you are beaming with pride.

May you rest in peace for eternity. .

Northside CST has changed since you left us. Those days seem one of innocence. I drive by your resting place on a daily manner, and I know that you are not really there, that you are still driving the streets of Northside looking for bad guys. Rest is peace…
