18 years ago to this day. I don't speak of that day often, I keep it within me. It has made me stronger as a person, as a cop, and as a father. There are fewer deputies on the job here now that were benefited with having known you. Those newer, younger deputies are at a loss that they will not understand. We will tell them, and we will not allow them to forget.....
