It’s crazy how much I trusted when you were SWT and I was a hostage negotiator. Always felt safe doing my job when you and your team was there so I could do mine.
Who would have guessed that so many years later my daughter Jamie Lee Tang would fall in love with your son, Maui Bryant Bayne. Although you and Jamie’s dad, Officer Charles “Chaz” Tang, Jr. are both passed, they live on in your honor with two beautiful grandchildren, Baby Maui Bayne and Beautiful baby Kauai Bayne. Your memory will never be forgotten. Your service to the community and love for your children lives on everyday. We wish you were here but know you and Chaz are looking down and still protecting them.
