Personal

About Me:: I have been married for almost 37 years, my wife had 8 children when I married her and we had 1 together to give us 9. We now have 16 grandchildren and 6 great grandchildren.( I have lost 1 grandson and one great grandson to drunk driving) I have been in law enforcement over 37 years and am now semi retired (only 34 hours a week) working on the Cold Case Squad Homicide Squad. God has been good to me and I thank him daily for the Blessings he bestows on us everyday. I am currently trying to bring awareness to honor the police officers who die in the line of duty and honor all police officers who served or serve and the problem of drunk driving. I need everyone to download my two songs, "The Badge" and "The Drunk Driver" (only 90 cents per song) so I can give 100% of any and all royalties to InVestUSA national organization that provides bulletproof vest to officers whose departments don't have the money in their budgets and also do replacement vests and MADD. If one doesn't want to download the songs then just click the play button and that will help them move up on the charts. I need the word to get around and the webpage is; http://iacmusic.com/artist.aspx?ID=59607. I have posted the word's of "The Badge" on every police officer's web page on ODMP that has died since 1970 in honor of their sacrifice. Their family and friends from around the country have emailed, called or sent a thank you card thanking me for sharing this in honor of their loved ones who gave the ultimate sacrifice. On the "Drunk Driver" song, when it was played on 42 radio stations around the country in 1993, I received phone calls from people telling me that the song changed their lives and they would never drink and drive again. This my friends: PRICELESS! This is my driving factor in wanting to use these two songs to maybe, just maybe change someones life, so please help and help me get the word out. May God Bless and Keep You Always Now my two songs are available at Walmart.com on MP3, just go to below link-type in David Bell upper right search bar under artist search. http://downloads.walmart.com/swap/
