After twenty five years, I still mourn the death of Peter and pray for his family. Peter was my high school student and his untimely death meant that the world was deprived of one terrific guy.

"And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow, Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings; I will arise and go now, for always night and day
I hear lake water lapping with low sounds by the shore;
While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements grey,
I hear it in the deep heart's core. "-W.B.YEATS'S INNISFREE ,THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE

Your courage to become a police officer at such a young age is truly commendable. It is a sad thing to see a man like you taken away from the ones that needed you the most. You will not be forgotten, then or now (22 years later). Watch over us all as you walk your beat above!

You only had a little under two years on the job. When most people your
age were off at college having a great time "partying," you were on the
streets seeing what the "real world" was truly all about. You made the
supreme sacrifice and you will never be forgotten. May you rest in
peace, Brother.
