Thinking about you today buddy. The time working the blocks at OCSD, discussing how we both just wanted to go to the "road." We both did with other agencies and lost contact with each other, but I will never forget the day I heard. I attended your Memorial as an officer on the "road." We made it Ken. We made it. Always my brother!
