What a great experience attending with Chief Smyth and all the dedicated School Resource and Education Officers, for the yearly Patrol Awards, particularly gratifying as it caused me to reflect back on my career of community service, which really started with being a School Patrol Captain, at Royal-Ecole School, 44 years ago. I believe many of these youth will continue on a path as peace-keepers.
Also happy I was able to teach them something about respect, holding a minute of silence for officer Steve Dzikowski, who signed my Patrol Certificate in 1974, retired in 1987, and passed away this week.
