During his 21- year- career he was involved in several serious accidents including being hit and injured twice by drunk drivers and nearly killed in 1993 when he was run over by a stolen transit bus.
It’s an excellent account of what happens before and after a suicide. Since his death, his wife Janice has tirelessly tried to raise awareness through Care Of Police Suicide Survivors and Badge Of Life Police Suicide Prevention.
