Reflections for Police Officer Richard Daniel Scalf

Hey Termite, Boy it doesn't seem like you were taken from this earth almost three years ago. I still sometime cry when I think of you, but for the most part I talk about your personality, your talent (song that was played at the funeral, couldn't believe you help to create it) I know you watch over me, sometimes I can feel you telling me, don't worry I'm fine. Every year around this time I sit and reflect on my life and I know that haveing you as my partner, was for a reason. I will be attending the Memorial in Washington in May 2002, and I know you will be there to comfort me in spirit..MAY U HAVE ETERNAL PEACE...FOREVER REMEMBERED....DIAMOND

To Mrs. Rundell, I hope the years have eased some of your grief, but I just want you to know that I say a prayer for you and your and family always, I still have the comic book it gives me comfort when the pain creeps in,

TO THE NEW OFFICERS ON PATROL, REMEMBER TO ALWAYS KEEP YOUR EYES OPEN AND YOUR MIND CLEAR...HOPING YOU NEVER HAVE TO EXPERIENCE WHAT I HAVE

SINCERELY, DIAMOND

P.O
DETROIT

I would like to tell whoever reads this, the person I knew as Termite. He was my partner, my friend, my brother in blue. I trusted this man with my life on a day to day basis, because I knew in my heart that he would be there for me. Even though the shooting was approximately 3yrs ago, I still shed tears for my partner. To his family, I hope that time has healed some of your pain. To TERMITE, I STILL MISS YOU AND LOVE YOU.....DIAMOND
