Remembering my partner and friend on this day—32 years later, Robin you are still missed. How fast another year has gone by. Just like last year, I shared a few stories about you today with my recruits in the police academy. I took the time to show them your picture hanging in the lobby area. Still hard talking about how you were taken from us so quickly. A constant reminder that life is so fragile.
The accident took you from us, but it can never erase the memories we shared as partners or the impact you made in our community.
