Dear Deputy Blair,

It is a honor to be in the same class as your son Joey. Joey is a great classmate and works really hard to honor your name. I want to work Gangs, I will always remember that you gave your life to protect those who can't protect their self against evil. Please watch over me and every other deputy including Joey most of all. You will never be forgotten.

I don't remember meeting you, because I was just a baby, but I do know who you are. My dad has always told stories about you. The name Stephen Blair was always held in reverence in our home. I am now partners with your son Joey. He's a great man and I'm sure you would be proud of him. I'll always have his back as well as all our brothers and sisters (once we earn the privilege of becoming deputies).

I wish you were here to receive it...I’m keeping my promise to you and keeping the car alive in your memory... I know you’re here with us, because every time I start the car up it’s like feeling your heart beat.
