View all 265 ReflectionsShawn. I can't believe another NYC FLeet Week is upon (1989) and I stood your duties while you were Upstate NY taking all your tests in Albany for NY State Police. Things happened fast and I went back to Cleveland to get Connie to bring her East and you escorted her to Bubble and Joy's wedding while the Cutter Hamilton was at GITMO and then Hurricane OPS (Hugo). October saw you join your NY State Police class. So glad I got to see you twice in the summer 2007 (You really should hold on to your badge)!!! I love you and Miss you my brother. Rest in Power. Tj
