Most Recent Reflection
View all 26 ReflectionsI am near the end of my career with Dallas PD after almost 40 years. We have started a new program where we read about you on the anniversary of your death. We want to ensure that with your DPD family, you are NEVER FORGOTTEN!
You look like another version of me, and I hired on at 20 as well. I want to cry as I think of what you were not able to experience in life - another soldier on the front lines - but this time - people in your own country killed you -
RIP Brother.
