43 years ago today, you were taken from us. Not a day has gone by that I haven't thought about you, Dad. 43 years and you'd think I could write this reflection without tearing up! You will always be remembered and I will also stand in honor with my family on the thin blue line. I know if you read this, a # wouldn't make sense...but trust me, it's a thing now! Love you, Dad! #BlueLivesMatter
