Reflections for Corporal Dyke "A. J." Coursen
Cleveland honored one of their officers, who gave his life as you did, today. Couldn't help but think of you, the church and your service as I watched the events in Cleveland. You are not forgotten. I think of you often.

I recently met some amazing police officers Dad, they made me think of you! I do wish you were here with me and you could see all I’ve become and trying to become. I’m in school for engineering trying my hardest. It’s not been the easiest road but I will never give up sir. I’m proud to be your son and you will never leave my heart Dad. Peace and Love to a hero! Love Cory Coursen

This week your son will be one of the speakers at the Lorain County Police Memorial. I'm sure he will make you proud. He has grown into quite the young man. Beaufort County S.O. is sending a representative, and he will be bringing your mom. You will be well remembered this Wednesday and Thursday.

Can’t believe it’s been so long. You were a great supervisor and I’m honored to have known you. I still remember the last time we spoke. Franks and I were working midnights. It was cold and snowy. You called to chat and laughed at us because we had to deal with the Ohio winters. You said that while we were freezing you were sitting in your PC with a shirt sleeve shirt on and the windows down. Thanks for being the person you were. Say hey to sponge and hope the weather is beautiful up there.
