Hey guys/gals,entering my 25th and last year working in Public-Safety today. Its been a tough year, seen many things that I would have rather not seen. But its been a good year also, I have seen several acts of kindness that have given me new hope. All is not bad.....hope each of you have a safe holiday season with your family.

Chris and Jerry
I am retired after 16+ years in the Missouri State Park System, 4 years as a general contractor, and then 20+ years as an instructor in a Community College. I am retired now and it is the best job I have ever had. Enjoy it to the fullest, life is too short to spend it all working to try to get ahead, forget it; you won't ever make it to what you think you will need, so make do with what you have and enjoy.
Good luck in retirement Chris and Jerry you really have something to look forward too.

Mr. Murl
