This was a rough day, intense scene with tremendous loss. Your sacrifice will never be forgotten, although I was glad to be part of the manhunt and on scene when the coward was killed after shooting K-9 “Rocky”, I was sad to be a part of it. To many times in my career, your life mattered to those who matter. Never forgotten.
