What a freak accident took you away from law enforcement and your family. From your other reflections you were loved and honored by your family which is all a man can ask in the end.

Even though your grandchildren and great grandchildren never knew you, and your children were very young at the time of your death, all were and are proud of your sacrifice. My sons and daughters are much more than my children. They are the grandsons and granddaughters of two very good and honorable men!
