View all 251 ReflectionsHey Sarge! I'm a few days late this year but I was thinking of you on the 2nd. The department did a little Facebook thing for you, which was nice. I wish some of the younger folks could have known you and seen what a real Henry County Cop was like in the old days. Thanks for teaching me. Say hi to the guys.
