Rob, I don't know where to start. I am so very sorry this happened. I've thought all night while at work of the good times we had while doing this job that we love but it don't take away the hurt I feel for what has happened today. If there was a way to rewind the day and start it differently to where you would be at home safe tonight with your family I know we all would but God had different plans for you today. You can rest in peace knowing that Leslie and your children will be taken care of for you or them will never be forgotten. Rob thank you for all the great memories and wisdom you gave me. It was an honor having served with you and calling you my friend. I will miss you greatly.

“REMEMBER ME”
Law enforcement officers are, indeed, a special breed of people. Ask anyone on the street and they will tell you that they would not have our jobs for anything in the world. It takes something special to do what we do and at the same time be able to even contemplate retirement. We try to be optimists. Unfortunately, there are a few of us who will never make that date with retirement. By the very nature of our job, we are at risk everyday of losing our lives, either at the hand of some deranged individual or in some other situation that we, by virtue of our occupation, may be unable to avoid. Some people have recognized the hazardous duties we involve ourselves in, the risks we take, and the pride we take in accomplishing that job. There is National Law Enforcement Week, dedicated to us who gladly accept the responsibility of protecting the citizens in our respective jurisdictions. National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Day is dedicated to those who gave their lives in the line of duty. These are but two examples of remembrances specifically for law enforcement personnel. Remembrances that come but once a year. We should remind fellow officers of another type of remembrance, one that will last a lifetime. Sooner or later, a doctor will pronounce us dead. It is inevitable. Regardless of whatever happens, death is the end we will all have to face.

Rob & I got hired together, sworn in together and went to the academy together. If Rob did something he excelled. Rob would do whatever he could for anyone. Rob was a brother in the true sense to all of us, and will be truly missed by all. Michelle & I pray for Rob's wife, kids, family and all his friends who share this great loss. I will miss him deeply.

I met Officer Curry while employed at javav joz. He was always smiling and friendly. He was honestly one of my favorite customers. I didn't see Rob as often once I stopped working there, but it was always a pleasure serving him and talking with him. My condolences and sympathies go out to his family. Gulfport has truly lost a great person as well as a great police officer.
