I was saddened to hear the news today of the death of area Balch Springs Police Officer Matthew Garcia who died in a motorcycle accident off duty this morning.

To make things worse, Officer Garcia’s wife was following behind and has to endure life with the memory of having actually seen what happened to her husband.

Please remember the Garcia family in your thoughts and prayers.

Here’s a link to The Dallas Morning News‘ accounting of the story.
