I live in abby just down the street from the procession.  it was really amazing to see everyone honor this great policeman who did a lot for our community/ 

It was an incredible outpouring of love and respect for a peace officer who lost his life protecting the public. I was told that there were approximately 12,000 First Responders, Law Enforcement members, Border Patrol officers, British police officers, Prison Guards etc that marched in that procession today...What an amazing honour was paid Constable John Davidson though I'm sure his family and fellow officers would have much preferred to have him back with them, instead.
I have lived that life within the law enforcement community (as family) not knowing if a partner will come home after shift end and it truly is a brotherhood and sisterhood when something happens. Not only among the officers themselves but with the families as well. When one of 'our own' goes down, that local 'family' becomes a national and global family with law enforcement and first responders everywhere. I was filled with pride and grief today.....pride that John Davidson was so well-loved and respected not only with his family but with his peers and the community as well..... grief that such a life was lost so senselessly and unnecessarily ....he still had much left to do. RIP John Davidson.... gone 10-7....
