View all 21 ReflectionsI thought of Dan last month as my Department "over prepared" for a flood. I showed his story to someone who commented and explained why I wasn't smiling. I worked with Dan in Colby in a group of young fun loving cops that had a ball. We did smile a lot then. We miss you brother.
