Kindness, compassion why are they trampled on by terror and wickedness? Why are angels of faith and goodwill taken suddenly without as much as a goodbye? The toll of toiling for securer routes becomes murkier and clouded by wanton evil.

Six years of loyal and professional service and protection and without at least you said goodbye that morning and I'm certain you embraced your beloved Karen. One dark and somber day to be saluted and solemnly remembered for the consummate character, commitment to excellence and convictions to morals and mettle. All in the skies above where you rest in peace my neighbor, friend and hero. A Godsend of humane and humble friendship , partnership and motivation from your golden heart.

Humanity thrives upon those humble and beloved of souls who summon the valor to incorporate harmony and tranquil unity within a given community.
