Seen his name on cops...and felt it would be an honor to remember him and read about him. If any of his friends or family reads this, do know I am so sorry for your loss and hope your pain has gotten less over the past 20 years...although I doubt it has...please know a stranger also shares your loss...even if knowing a good person and fine young man died doing something greater than most can ever dare do. I wish I could give you my life in exchange for his. I know he would have used his better. I'm sorry.
