View all 42 ReflectionsThis young man was my brother in law. More like my little brother I met him when he was 13 years of age. He grew up to become a fine young man and followed what is in all his families blood and that's was law enforcement. He became an officer that all could be proud of but God took him from us early he had other plans for David. I miss our talks and laughs we use to have, I look forward to seeing you once again on heaven s streets of gold. RIP Corporal David Eugene King
