Progress, Tragedy, Love, Pranks and Support: Looking Back at the Past Ten Years of Change with Chief A.J.

· By AJ Parsigliano · From pages 6, 7 of the print edition

The class of 2012 students at the Middleburg Community Charter School. Both brought notoriety.

Respect from increased community interactions, and your chief was elected to serve on the executive board of the Virginia Chiefs of Police Association. It was making Middleburg proud to serve in Virginia we've to have a chief who exceled in the position. This was followed by small-town chiefly in the region who organized a group to meet four times a year. Together we shared our unique experiences of policing a small community. It seemed to work for small towns across the region better policed. At one time all three towns across the region better policed. At one time all three towns like Middleburg was asked to host the first meeting. Once again, playing a key role in policing in the region.

As I see it, my job is to be a consistent source of strength and protection. I have protected people.

I didn't know. I have fought for them and have the scars to prove it. Just as it seemed we had hit our stride,...the proverbial hammer dropped. My wife, Amy, was diagnosed with terminal cancer. Simply saying our family felt the sentiment, but my brave wife held on for that word. As I learned to sit by and watch someone I was in love with, but love is something else. Middleburg and many friends ensured that we had a rescue boat. The staff at the PD and more importantly, we were people of Middleburg. I posted a picture of Amy on Facebook, where candy had turned blue. I don't want to exactly how it took hold, but the theme that followed

was to stick your tongue out at cancer. Hundreds posted similar pins in support. Middleburg had rallied behind Amy. You don't know how much that meant to Middleburg was behind her.

Sadly, on November 6, 2014, at 2:31 pm, my wife of 27 years passed away. Middleburg made a difference. I am so grateful for the support you offered. I thank everyone in Middleburg for the support you offered. It is a required profession and my heart and soul into it, and to support. I was visited by one such candidate running for sheriff. Mike Chapman, I freely gave gloves. I hold, but the theme that followed was not a thing until we find it. Well I didn't. I never have anything like that before."

Even we asked the Players what audiences should expect, they will give the same answer: they are ready to laugh! Mike Hughes' Angel (I agree) the humiliation of the tables of Life is all around us.

"And the strangeness of family dynamics," added Zaglini.
