Great work Officer Harris and K-9 Rocky! Thank you! Stay safe.

Great work Officer Harris and K-9 Rocky! Thank you! Stay safe.Great work Officer Harris & K9 Rocky and congratulations on being the District 5 Officer of the Month!!!
****************************************************
Congratulations to Officer J. Harris and K9 Rocky of District 5, C Squad, who are being recognized as this month’s Officer of the Month.

Officer Harris recently completed a four-week K9 Handler course with his new partner, K9 Rocky. While attending K9 Handler school, Officer J. Harris and K9 Rocky conducted rigorous training to master working as a K9 Team. The curriculum is designed to equip handlers with the expertise needed for effective law enforcement. The curriculum focuses on narcotics detection, tracking, and evidence locating. Officer J. Harris and K9 Rocky have quickly become a unified team. Their combined efforts have led to the successful locating and apprehending of three suspects wanted in connection with felony incidents. Officer J. Harris and K9 Rocky have recovered not only two discarded firearms from fleeing suspects but also other discarded evidence pertinent to the crimes currently being investigated. Their work, including assisting with K9 callouts and routinely responding to 9-1-1 calls, has significantly contributed to maintaining public safety.

Thanks to Officer Harris and K9 Rocky for your hard work and dedication to protecting the Durham community. Excellent work!

Financial Legacy

Dealing with your own mortality can be difficult and overwhelming. So much so, that often times you may choose not to think about it at all. You may put off, or ignore altogether, your responsibilities to your loved ones because you are either beleaguered by the subject or you simply do not know where to start. In so doing, you run the risk of diluting your legacy and failing to preserve many of the things that you have worked so hard to achieve.

Financially speaking, most of your focus is probably on the here and now. You concentrate on paying your bills, earning enough money to support your family, and setting aside some money for retirement. A big part of your overall financial responsibility, however, is to ensure that you do not leave unanswered questions and undesired consequences for your family and friends. Your focus on the present will mean a lot less if you do not complete the picture by planning for the future.

This is a huge topic that requires a lot of consideration across a variety of matters, most of which are complex enough to warrant the attention of an attorney, a CPA, and/or a financial advisor. Developing a will and a detailed estate plan involves multiple steps and careful thought and these actions are absolutely necessary if you want to ensure that your intentions are clear and your wishes are protected.

For our purposes, we are going to concentrate solely on the financial aspect of this planning and some simple guidelines that will assist you in making some decisions that are key components in securing and strengthening your financial legacy.

To read on, please visit: Define Your Financial Legacy.
