Reflections for Patrolman First Class David Christopher Ezernack

To the family, friends and co-workers of PFC Ezernack, my deepest sympathy for your loss. May God bless and comfort you. He is safe now.

Jamie Johnson, surviving sister of
Officer Jon Cook
San Francisco Police Dept.

To your family and Coworkers, may God give you stregnth and understanding in this time of need. God Bless.

K-9 Officer Phillip Geoge
Tarrant Police Department

Officer Ezernack was the same age as my daughter when she was shot and killed in the line of duty. There is no understanding something like this. May God be with family, friends and co-workers and give you strength and courage, comfort and peace to continue on. God Bless You.

Mother of Officer Julie Jacks EOW 5/6/2002

Rest in peace my brother—You will not be forgotten. You have done your duty.

As I visit the Law Enforcement Memorial on May 15th, I will say a prayer for you, your family, and all those that have been affected by your passing.

See you some day brother.

Corporal Jodie L. Warren
Prince George County Police Department, Virginia

To the family, friends and loved ones of David:

Uniform normally blue -- at times dressed in black
A normal day on the beat or city under attack.
You were there to protect and to serve
And this you did so well...
Now you are in Heaven,
Not here in earthern hell.

You loved to suit up in your task force gear.
It pumped you up just to have it on.
To conquer and extinguish everyone's fear,
It's so hard to believe you're now gone.

I believe you're looking down on us
Grinning from ear to ear...
Wondering why there's such a fuss?
We wish you were still here.

Memories are all that we have these days...
And those we'll always hold dear.
We'll never forget your outgoing ways
Or your voice we never will hear.

Young and brave with a will of steel,
Pride reverberating that you could feel.
Tough as nails and soft as snow
We want you here, but you had to go.

Up on the porch, your last request...
I've no wife nor kids, let me be the guest.
Your request granted, your intentions true
To protect and to serve, dressed in black or in blue.

You lost your life doing what you believed in.
We will never understand the reason why
Because of ignorance, through mortal sin...
Our friend, Dave had to die.

We miss you David and want you to know...
There won't be a day that goes by without thought
Of your smiling face or a "Whoa girl, whoa!"
Even though you're gone, a hero in the battle fought.

And to your brothers, you all will carry on his fight
To keep us protected throughout all the night.
You'll be in shifts fighting our city's crime
But David will be on duty all of the time.

Dave's still here on the shoulders of the force.
A guardian angel watching over you all.
Whether in a car, on a bike or a horse...
He was dispatched to the Lord's beckoning call.

These were not orders that could be ignored
Or ones that David just didn't receive.
To the Lord, upon angel's wings, David soared
And in the force ... we still do believe.

To the Ezernack Family: I will never forget David. He was always so full of life. When I heard about this I was at work less than a mile or so away. We could hear all of the sirens but weren't sure of the reason. When I got the call about Jay and David I was in absolute disbelief. I want you all to know, especially the Ezernack family, that David meant alot to so many people. He had an impact on everyone he met. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

And to Dave...thanks for teaching me to blow the duck call. You'll definitely get your limit hunting and fishing up there! I'll never forget the time we spent together. Our friendship meant and still means a lot to me. I will miss you always, never forget you, and you will always have a special place in my heart. We love you David...

At the beginning of every shift I supervise, myself and the other officers on shift dedicate the day to the memory of a fallen officer. Today, February 25, 2003 we dedicated the shift to the memory of PFC Ezernack and Patrolman Carruth who died on duty five days ago.

When one law enforcement officer falls, we all stumble for a while, but we will carry on.

PFC Ezernack's & Patrolman Carruth's sacrifice will never be forgotten.

David,

God called on you that day,
that day he took you away,
he wanted you to go,
this I really do know,
somethings are really unclear,
as rolling down my face, comes another tear,
I sometimes wonder if you knew,
how much I really loved you,
I think of the good times we had,
and it hurts me so bad,
i know you want me to be strong,
because you are at you're eternal home,
well buddy it's hard for me to do,
because David i really miss you.
