MikeK: CPD Blue Rescues Wife, Kids

MikeK: Locally speaking, thanks to CdA Police Officer Speer who helped my beloved bride when our 15-year old GMC Suburban died on her in the middle of Ramsey Road with toddlers aplenty in the car. He stayed until I got there (and beyond) while we waited for a tow with lights on and cones to ensure drivers knew we were there. (Thanks, too, Schaeffer Towing - for the great quick service). There was another nice lady who stayed and offered to help, rides, etc, though she was gone when I got there and I don't know if Kathleen got her name. Nice people - good town, thank you, ma'am.

Question: When were you last helped by a Good Samaritan?
