There has never been a question as to his love of the job and the love of his fellow officers. Rob has recently been assigned as the Officer In Charge and operated a motorcycle everyday. It quickly became obvious his love of the motorcycle unit was fulfilling for him and a benefit to the traffic goals of the city.""""
