You attended some of the same schools as I did and never experienced any of the hassles and troubles that I went through.

Matt lives and works out in San Francisco and Josh attends college in New York though we would have preferred that he stayed here in Florida. Your family came to sunny South Florida sixty-five years ago and through progressions you wanted to become a police officer. a very noble, challenging and at times a perilous profession filled with awesome responsibility.
