I never had the honor of meeting you Detective Jones, however I had the honor of being present at the celebration of life for you as well as your casket guard. Rest in peace and forever I am grateful to your service.

The true measure of a person
is not found in the
might of their arm,
their wealth
or their power –
it is found in the strength
of their character.

There is no greater testimony to
ones character, than ones
willingness to sacrifice all,
in the noble quest of
providing protection to all
whom they serve.
