Sept. 20 – Sept. 21, 2012


Today’s Good News
The Richmond Police Department recently enjoyed a visit from a retired policeman from France and his friend who enjoyed their experience so much that they wrote to the Times-Dispatch about it: “It is a visit every citizen protected by this outstanding group of men and women should make. It is all too easy to take their service, their protection for granted. We have learned to thank our men and women in military uniform, but how easy it is to take for granted that same service on the home front,” they wrote. “I ask the citizens of Richmond and all areas this: The next time you see a police officer, thank him or her. The police risk all each and every day for us. Even those thanks can never repay the debt we owe them.”
