It has been a long time since I spoken of Rusty. I was one of his students at Phoenix Community College in the early 1980's. He was a good teacher and a fair man. I kept up with my studies and been in one form of law enforcement or another since then and he had some part in me staying with it. Keep an eye on the rest of us, while we are still on watch
