Mark, I’m sure you heard me tonight telling my neighbor about you. How you were there for me on that domestic off of GVR. How you were there after the explosion off West Broadway, taking peremeter, not needing to do so as your shift was over. I miss you. I’m sorry I couldn’t do more other then yell to the Fire Fighters to hurry, it’s a cop. I’m so sorry I couldn’t do more. My neighbor has your keychain we made for your son. I look forward to a handshake and a smile some day. I’ll see you then.
