View all 10 ReflectionsOn this 44th anniversary, I want to say how much your family still misses you, and loves you. Not a day goes by that you're not in our thoughts. You were a wonderful son, father and husband and a well respected police officer. You missed out on a lot, but you would have been so proud of your 4 grandchildren and now a great granddaughter.
