Most Recent Reflection
View all 15 ReflectionsI was born in 1973, the son of Robert W. Roberts. My father, the way I understand it, was Floyd's partner and had taken that evening off. Although he may not be talk about it much, I know it affected him deeply. I'm so sorry for your loss, knowing he was an outstanding officer and served Rochester paying the ultimate price. My thoughts, prayers and thanks go out to all officers past and present.
