To the father that I never really knew, you are missed every day! The nightmare was just two months before my 4th birthday and this month I reach my 63rd. I know that you would be proud of your kids, grandkids and great grandkids......we are all very proud of you! It saddens me deeply to hear of another officer loosing his/her life while serving the communities they love, because I know first hand the sorrow their families will carry for the remainder of their lives. Daddy, you were and are loved!
