Our recent trip to Athens, GA reminded us of how precious each day is. Although we were there to attend a photography convention and attend seminars, we found ourselves in the midst of a community coming together to mourn the loss of a police officer who was shot and killed while working in the community. Several thousand police officers along with family and friends gathered in an adjacent area of the conference center to remember their colleague and friend. Many attending the convention also paused from their activities to witness the procession. With literally thousands in the area, only the sound of a bagpiper could be heard as Officer Elmer "Buddy" Christian received a final salute.
