I had the great pleasure of knowing Ronnie Beck, and he was the inspiration for my joining the police department. I was at his wedding, just a short few weeks prior to his death..... He was a fine Christian police officer and an inspiration to us all. I was only 16 years old when Ronnie Beck was killed by a drunk driver on the traffic stop, and when I joined the department at 21 years of age I wore his Sam Brown belt and holster with pride! Ronnie will live on through my life, and the lives of many others who he touched during his brief, but wonderful life!
