Officer Choi, it's been 8 years since your life was taken, but you have not been forgotten by your Sisters and Brothers in Law Enforcement and unquestionably by those who knew and loved you best. It's that remembrance that keeps you with us.

May your rest remain peaceful and God Bless you, Brother.
