All give some, some give all. Your watch on earth may have just ended but your watch in Heaven has just begun. Your duties have changed but your job is not done. God Bless you Thomas.

Its been years since I have seen you. We helped each other out many times up on "the rock" and near the 210. We had different badges but we served with integrity, honor, and with a unified purpose. I can only hope that you will spare some time and keep an eye out for me like you used to do. Rest in Peace my brother.
