Nearing 13 years and I remember it like it was yesterday. Don't worry about your son I have a tight eye on him. I I have never though about the sacrifice until I started working. You were a great husband, Father, and Cop. You are truly missed.

I don't know if Dave's family ever reads these but Dave was a classmate of mine at the K-9 Academy. He was certainly a stand-up guy and great officer. He is missed a heck of a lot. I've put my class photo away along with the other snap shots from that period of time. It's just too hard for me to look at. He is missed more than most people know.

"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

Officer Douglas, My cousin is friends with your son, Dave Jr. I learned about your death through him. Your death really devastated your community. God Bless you and your sacrifice will never be forgotten.

Officer Douglas,
I remember you as a wonderful man. I know your family, wonderful people, and I know you are looking down on them from heaven. My Father said you were a fine cop; you died protecting us, but it was your proud legacy from life that speaks just as loudly. We will never forget, god bless you and all those who have fallen in the line of duty.

We all miss you very much here in Cape May County. It has been many years since your death, but your memory lives on in Lower Township. There is a school and a park named for you. Every time I drive by the cemetary where you and Geno are burried, I give you guy's a salute. Rest in Peace.
