I haven't had much contact with my family for quite some time now, but I'm almost positive this is my uncle..
I remember meeting him quite some time ago when I was little, and he was a great guy. I used to have an obsession with wine corks, and he gave me a rather large ziplock bag of his unused ones. Very thoughtful...I regret not getting to know him..

Scott, It is with a heavy heart and deep sadness that I learn of your passing. As one of my field training officers you taught me well. Many of the things I learned from you, I instilled into my trainees. You were admired, respected and looked up to both as a fellow officer and friend. You will always missed but never forgotten!
God be with you.

"In the simple performance of duty,
he pinned on a badge,
checked his gear with a practiced eye,
and kissed his loved ones good-bye.
In the simple performance of duty,
he reported for work,
joked with his buddies at roll call,
and made his last trip down the squad room hall.

-Author Unknown

Thank you for your service. My prayers are with your family, friends, and your department. You will always be remembered, and your sacrifice was not in vain. Justice will be done oneday. Godspeed Brother.


In the simple performance of duty,
he answered the call
to help the helpless, to find the lost,
no matter the danger or how great the cost.
In the simple performance of duty,
he lay down his life,
for those in peril he tried to save,
our brave friend went to his grave.
In the simple performance of duty,
we honor his deed,
as we carry him to rest in a flag-draped casket,
long after the world has forgotten, we shall never forget.
Never judge or regret, what he did, In the simple performance of duty."
