    Rest In Peace, Edo… You will run free as you cross Rainbow bridge for so many good deeds done thru your life time. I’m sure he will be missed. What an awesome team I’m sure he & his partner were. Prayers for his ECSO family.

    Thank you Edo and Officer Land for your service in protecting our community. K-9’s are a very special breed of officers and I for one am very thankful for his years of service and commitment to our protection and that of his handler (fellow officer/Partner). Rest in peace – you will be missed.

    What a great looking dog ! To walk beside them and share time
    and life with them is an honor. The world thinks that we’re their
    Master……but those who walk along with them know different.
