Today in Ontario a 32 year old police officer lost his life while on duty. He approached a van and the driver sped off dragging the officer some 300 feet. He leaves a 2 and a half year old child and a 9 week old baby. Hearing this on the news while eating dinner just left me in tears.
Such a dedicated officer,just doing what he loved and that was working in the police force. A police officer's job is not one to be taken lightly. Yes we may all have our reservations on how we feel about the police. Many tend to voice a negative opinion and we have heard lately some stories that make us wonder what is really going on in our local police forces.
But still, when an officer is killed by such unpredictable, cowardly people I can only hope that the murderer will be tried appropriately. This officer most probably kissed his wife and children this morning as he left for work never thinking that he would not return home for supper.
May he rest in peace and his family and coworkers be given the strenght and courage during this difficult time.
My daughter, Kelly-Anne Drummond was murdered at the age of 24 in October 2004. Since her untimely passing, my life has forever changed. My blog will hopefully be of help to other women who are living in abusive relationships. I also will share delightful stories of Kelly-Anne's life and share with you my path as I move forward.
