Dear Ronnie I'll never forget the day I sat behind the preacher with other members of NPD as a thousand uniformed members of your brotherhood stood to send you to your Lord. Our night shifts together were filled with your infectious humor and your love for your family was so evident in your actions. I'm so sorry that the sorry chief who gave us our orders was too chicken to confront a criminal by himself so he woke you up and ordered you to drive to your death. I've never and won't ever forgive that drunk
