Police Officer Jim Kline retired from the Eden Prairie Police Department today after serving for 23 years. Ever since I joined the Fire Department I have known Jim, professionally and personally.
I will truly miss Jim, his professionalism and knowledge has always been a useful resource at emergency scenes. Jim always made it a point to bring new officers to the fire stations during calls and introduce them to the firefighters. Jim placed a well deserved priority on the Police and Fire relationship here.
There are many pages that I could write about all the good things Jim Kline represents to the City of Eden Prairie and it’s Police and Fire Departments, and even more would be deserved.
I just want to say, “Thank you, Jim, for being a friend, confident and someone I could always trust to be honest with me, no matter how painful it might have been.”
You’ll be missed!
