"It is my sincere pleasure to announce that on this day, after 32.5 years of service, my father, Southbridge Police Officer Duane Ledoux, is retiring and has given his final code five," Nate Ledoux says.

Nate continues: "It is my honor to acknowledge this code five, to set free a man who has sacrificed so much of his time for all of us, so that he may spend the rest of his life discovering new craft beer, exploring this beautiful country, and most importantly, chasing glory. "

"Dad you are officially code five. "

Fighting back tears, Duane radios back: "Love you. "

"I wish you the best of luck on your future endeavors. Congratulations brother. "

One day, Mrs. True, my teacher, organized a poetry contest after we have just studied various types of poems. My classmates all wrote to their family members, but I put the word into my poem carefully: “I love Penny.” Penny was my 3-year-old dog, that was my best friend. My classmates felt strange and wondered how. However, I felt really moving when Mrs. True still showed off my poem to my classmates. As result, this contest became a turning point in my life. From now on, I fell in love with writing and have even become an editor of a newspaper. I really respect Mrs. True and teachers like him for encouraging us to follow our hearts.
