| Posted 7 months ago Rest in peace Ofcr. Lopez. I'll keep you, your family, friends and co-workers in my thoughts and prayers. A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. "I'd rather be a failure at something I enjoy than be a success at something I hate." -- George Burns "A pessimist complains about the wind, an optimist expects it to change and a leader adjusts the sails." |
