I am extremely grateful to all the law enforcement officers who showed their love and respect and protected my Mother and Father during the duration of their time spent as retailers on Beverly Drive through the years, and upon their retirement, the care You have shown in protecting our community, our homes and our families from harm, while upholding the law, from individuals who may see otherwise. I am so very proud of the Beverly Hills Police Officers that continue to show the world - in essence - that law enforcement is combined, to working together to make good things happen, I am grateful for your hard work, dedication and support of so great a community, Beverly Hills. And of course, Chief Snowden to whom I say "It is reflected by your superiors in the greatness of so magnificent an ensemble, a force of Men and Women from so great and fine department.


"President Bush paid tribute to 156 law enforcement officers killed last year while making traffic stops, arresting criminals, investigating crimes and performing other duties...

..."All of these men and women served the cause of justice," Bush said at a memorial service on the Capitol lawn. "Our nation stands in admiration and gratitude for their service, and we ask God's blessings for the families and friends they have left behind. Many years ago, here in the City of Beverly Hills, its people and its Police Department were in dire straights. The city was at the verge of bankruptcy.
People were suffering from high crime; the department was in trouble.
The Police department was under funded, undermanned, poorly trained, ill equipped and seriously at odds with the community that they were trying to serve.

To some extent they got the job done, they did the best they could in bad times. But along the way they built barriers between themselves and the community that they were trying to serve. It was not easy for them to get their jobs done without the support of the people, that they so desperately needed.
The department, desperately needed our leaders to make the right kinds of decisions. They were charged with the responsibility of making long-term plans to make this a better department under the lack of financial raises and operating costs. The revitalization of the community city council, its new mayor and I want to mention too that the community council have been revitalized and are doing vital work for this city. They are keeping the Police Department in touch with its residents.
I love my Police department as many residents do and want to do whatever I can to offer my support and gratitude for their loyalty and commitment to excellance.






in closing may I add that I am pleased to tell you that, my Father, Simon is recovering nicely from a devastating and debilitating stroke and I am very proud of my Mother with whom, her special love and nurturing, has brought my Dad a long way to recovery since its adverse effect upon him. To the law enforcement personnel of this great city. I will tell you that we as a community we will cooperate in every way possible to create and protect a better, greater life for all. People that know me, know that I am fond of quoting the great philosophers scientists, and presidents. And so I will leave you with the favorite closing of President George Bush.
Thank you, God bless You and God bless America. Respectfully I remain; David Harrison Levi - Beverly Hills
