I never had the honor of knowing you, but I'm close to your daughter Missie, and she still carries such heartbreak, and talks about you all the time. She has your uniform and badge framed in a beautiful frame and hanging on her wall. God Bless You for giving the ultimate sacrifice, and we all miss you!
