View all 290 ReflectionsI was eight years old, and I remember sitting on the curb on Ramsey avenue when his parade drove past. I sat with one of my friends, another officers son. Even when I was eight the gravity of what has happened made me understand just how heroic our protectors are. I am seventeen years old now, and I can only say that respect has deepened.
