To the family and friends of Trooper Small and fellow officers in the South Carolina Police Dept., and most especially to Trooper Smalls:

Today has been twenty years and one day since the brutal murder of Trooper Smalls. His valor and bravery will never be forgotten. His memory is being honored and revered today.

I am glad that after seventeen years the despicable criminal who took the life of the honorable Trooper Smalls got what he deserved.

This reflection is sent with the utmost respect for the many years of distinquished service Trooper Smalls gave to his community and the citizens of South Carolina, and for the supreme sacrifice he and his family made on September 27, 1985.
