The salvation of the righteous comes from the Lord;
he is their stronghold in time of trouble.
The Lord helps them and delivers them;
he delivers them from the wicked and saves them,
because they take refuge in him.
Psalm 37:39-40
Rest in peace brother.

I first met him when he was assigned to the mounted unit down the street where i was assigned as a security officer. Being assigned to Cabrini-green as a security officer i would attend meetings were i would stop by his office just to say hello.
My staff and I mourn with his district and family.

May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind always be at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
and rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.
