It's difficult day for the citizens, and men and women of the Philadelphia Police Dept. The loss of Cpl. Joe O'Conner has rocked us all. Police officers with regularity leave the comforts of home and family to fight for the rights/ lives of the innocent. Sadly, some of us don't come home. Today, Joe's eternal home is with God. Please watch over us as we continue to serve and protect. We love you bro... we got it from here. Salute!!!
