On one winter evening you encountered me in a poor frame of mind, but your kindness and good training brought me down a path to better my life. I wish I could thank you in person. It would be self serving in the least to say that I have learned from your examples, but I state it here to inspire others who risk their lives daily in a very noble profession. May God bless you, Officer Johnson.
Miscreant (hopefully, reformed)
He cuffed and stuffed me..deservedly so!
