I watched with horror as the events unfolded on TV Thursday night. How much more can Kirkwood take? However, a great community such as Kirkwood will survive. My thoughts and prayers go out to all the victims & their families. I am a D.A.R.E. Officer and will be sure to remind the kids of the Officer’s sacrifice. We will dedicate this years class to them.

Officer Ballman,we have the watch. Rest in peace brother.
