Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

To the family & friends of Sgt. Futrell,
So sorry to hear about 3 officers losing their life at one time. May God give you comfort, strength and the courage you will need at this tragic time. Just know there are many others who care and know what you are going through. Help each other as you make it through each day and be understanding of each others emotions.....we all react to tragedies in different ways. I know how difficult this is....I lost the man I had been married to for 8 years and dispatched for last year. Time doesn't seem to help you heal as some people say, but helps you learn how to cope with your loss. God bless & keep you safe.

There are no words for the deep pain and loss felt because of your absence. You were a Leader, Mentor and Friend I will never forget. May you rest in peace Scott.

Officer Gil Narvaez
Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department

Scott, thank you for all you've taught me and the countless others. You are very well respected and a true hero. The world is a lesser place without you in it.

I am saddened by the loss of the three officers in the plane crash. I work the marijuana eradication program with my department and fly in helicopters for the spotting. Therefore this tragedy hit me close to home. In addition I lost a sister officer and best friend; Officer Kristin Pataki, on May 04, 2002 to a car accident while she was responding to backup a fellow officer.
There are no words to express the pain that is felt by all whenever a fellow officer is lost.
My heart goes out to all family, friends and co-workers in your time of great loss. Have faith that your loved one is in a better place with my friend and every other fallen officer and they all are on watch over us.

Sergeant Futrell,

I want to thank you for your sacrifice made while trying your best to keep more drugs off the street. I would also like to offer my condolences to your family, friends and LEO family you left behind. You will not be forgotten.

My father was born and raised in Bryson City, so I have spent a lot of time in this beautiful part of the country. Thank you again for keeping it safe for others.
