Thinking of you and all of your loved ones on this day. Those who work in corrections have always been considered by me to be brave individuals because of the people that had to deal with every day, unarmed and locked in with them. Continue to keep watch over your loved ones. You will never be forgotten.

"Loved with a love beyond all feeling,
Missed with a grief beyond all tears."
