I don't know if you know that the Police Chief's own son was killed 6 years ago. His compassion, composure, and empathy are to be commended.

 

Also, Stevie Wonder is a National Treasure, IMO.

MyGirlsMom...Thank you for taking the time to type the words to this beautiful song.  I never heard it before and the words are very touching.

I was very moved by that also.  He couldn't have picked a better artist to quote.

I sometimes stack all four of my Bose slots with his CDs and listen to him for hours.

 

And that Dallas Police Chief.  How lucky they are to have him.

Hi @Lindsays Grandma

 

I wish I could take credit for typing out the lyrics but I copied and pasted them from another site. Smiley Happy
