Stopped by PLEA today.

They are having a fundraising raffle. I bought some tickets.

Evidently, Kathy will be there in the morning around 9 to draw the winners.

Very sorry to hear. God bless him and his family.

RIP

People sleep peacefully at night because hard men stand ready.

Doesn't seem like it's been three years.  I'm carrying the 1911 that John helped me build this month in memory.  Gone, but never forgotten.

Miss ya buddy.

John was the MAN when it came to BHP and 1911....and just a solid dude all around.  I really wish I had known him better.  I sincerely miss him. 

5 years is coming up. I'd like to do something for John's family, any thoughts?

Condolences to those who knew him.

Damn...5 years. RIP

RIP John, you are remembered

100 Club donation is a good choice.

RIP Det. Hobbs.  Hope the family is doing well over the years.

Updated my previous blurred out photobucket pics in earlier posts.

Good man.

You are missed, Sir.
