RIP Brother. Gone, but Never Forgotten.

NorCal... can we get ALERT status on this for a while?? I'd rather see this in red, than the stickied thread up top. Just a thought.

Stay safe brothers.

One of the friendliest guys I met during my time in Virginia.
I don't know who was more surprised when we realized we were both Jewish.
Rest in peace friend.

I often speak harshly of those who fall short of the high standard set by the average policeman, who is among the finest of men; I never question the goodness and the grandeur of the policeman's oath and of the service to which he is called.

I pray that God will cherish our friend and comfort his family, and in His mercy grant that for his duty every lawman be honored and none be sacrificed.

With respect for all present, I pray in Jesus' name.
