Thanks for sharing. Police funerals are gut-wrenching. A friend of mine (Sacramento Sherriff) was killed in the line of duty about 8 years ago when she was responding to a call for back up, and a drunk driver in a huge Ford pick up pulled out in front of her (as he was leaving the liquor store!), she t-boned him at about 70mph... I went to the funeral at the Capitol building.. it was so emotionally draining I couldn't believe it.

Gary - thanks for your contributions to society, Moparts, and the friends who had never even met you.
