Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

So sorry to hear that another officer was killed in N.C. May God watch over Deputy Summey's family, friends & coworkers during this tragedy. I know the pain and loneliness you feel and will continue to feel. It doesn't necessarily get easier, but with the support of others you can learn to deal with it a little easier one day at a time. Always remember the wonderful time you had together. You're in my prayers.

They say "You don't know what you got until it's gone!" How true that is! You were a kind individual, who cared about your fellow man. You always had a smile on your face! Me, being the moody person I am, asked you one day " How can you always be in a good mood?" You just smiled at me, and offered a few words of wisdom. I used to fuss at you when you would beep me on the nextel, because you knew I hated talking on it, thats why you done it. I would give anything for you beep me now, and be able to fuss at you. I remember the time that my day started out bad, I was having coffee at the Randleman Resturaunt when you beeped me and asked if I knew what 2 letters stood for (inside Joke), I busted out laughing and spewed coffee everywhere, everyone turned and looked at me (how embarrasing). Everything went right the rest of the day. We reminded each other of that constantly. Toney, you are a "
Hero" in every meaning of the word. I promise that I will look into what we had talked about! God bless you and your family! Watch over us and guide us Toney, we need you. You will be missed my friend! Godspeed my brother.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family in this time of sorrow. Toney Summey was a kind hearted concerned individual who cared for his fellow officers and his community. This tragic happening will remain in our hearts forever and Toney will remain as a wonderful memory of a great individual and one that I looked up too and had a great deal of respect for his integrity and honesty and willingness to make our community one in which to be proud of I will always remember you.....

"A Policeman was killed last night"

A policeman was killed last night.
He died while protecting your rights.
His creed was to protect and serve.
This fate he didn't deserve.

A mom and dad have lost a son.
So many other jobs he could've done.
His wife and kids are left alone.
Their daddy won't be coming home.

His fellow officers are hurt so deep.
For a fallen brother they weep.
The morning paper will print a story.
About a policeman who died in glory.

The flags will fly at half mast.
Politicians and citizens will seem sad.
The funeral is tommorrow at noon.
It will all be over very soon.

By next week they will have forgot.
That a policeman was killed last night.

I share my deepest sympathies with the family and friends of this fallen hero, may god bless you all.

Patrolman Matthew G. Butcher

There are but two persons who protect the sinful human race from destroying itself. One is God's Holy Spirit. The other is the Peace Officer. Without them, we would all perish at each other's hands.
According to Romans 13.1-5...
God ordains the Peace Officer’s profession.
The Peace Officer is sent by God.
The Peace Officer is vested with God's authority to enforce the law.
A Peace Officer's badge is to be honored by us, because it is honored by God.

To the family of Deputy Sheriff Toney Clayton Summey and the Randolph County Sheriff's Department, your extended family of Law Enforcement Officers grieve with you during this time. I pray that God will wrap his loving arms around each of you during this most difficult time.

To all my brothers and sisters, may God be with you every day, please remember, we are a part of the largest family in the world and when one hurts we all hurt.

Though our badges and uniforms may be different, our mission is the same. Rest in peace with the other fallen Heroes. We will continue the fight in your honor.

Florida Deputy Sheriff

There are simply no words that could describe the heroism displayed on a daily basis by Toney and his co-workers. On many occasions, I was relieved by the back-up that Toney gave me and will forever be grateful. May God bless Toney, his family and his co-workers.

Detective Kevin Hornaday
Randleman Police Department

May God take your family in his arms and hold you tight and fill you with his peace. Our prayers are with you! Toney will always be a hero!

Kelley Crouse
wife of former Randolph County Deputy

To the family of Toney; my families prayers go out to your family. May God be with you and give you peace. Toney was a wonderful friend and co-worker and the people of Randolph County has lost a wonderful officer! Toney is a "True Hero."

God bless you for your bravery and service.

MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS GO OUT TO THE FAMILY, FRIENDS AND CO-WORKERS OF DEPUTY TONEY SUMMEY. HOPE THE FOLLOWING WILL GIVE SOME COMFORT AT YOUR TIME OF NEED:

I CAN ONLY IMAGINE WHAT IT WILL BE LIKE
WHEN I WALK BY YOUR SIDE
I CAN ONLY IMAGINE WHAT MY EYES WILL SEE
WHEN YOUR FACE IS BEFORE ME
I CAN ONLY IMAGINE, I CAN ONLY IMAGINE

SURROUNDED BY YOUR GLORY, WHAT WILL MY HEART FEEL
WILL I DANCE FOR YOU JESUS OR IN AWE OF YOU BE STILL
WILL I STAND IN YOUR PRESENCE, TO MY KNEES I WILL FALL
WILL I SING HALLELUJAH, WILL I BE ABLE TO SPEAK AT ALL
I CAN ONLY IMAGINE, I CAN ONLY IMAGINE

I CAN ONLY IMAGINE WHEN THAT DAY COMES
AND I FIND MYSELF STANDING IN THE SON
I CAN ONLY IMAGINE
WHEN ALL I WILL DO IS FOREVER, FOREVER WORSHIP YOU
I CAN ONLY IMAGINE, ICAN ONLY IMAGINE

KNOW THAT DEPUTY SUMMEY IS IN A BETTER PLACE AND THAT YOU ALL WILL SEE HIM AGAIN SOMEDAY. MAY GODD BLESS YOU ALL.

Today a hero died, tomorrow he will be given a final farewell by those who knew and loved him. Weeks, possibly months will go by as the "system" decides how his killer will be punished. His slick defense lawyer will portray a troubled man, desparate. Deputy Summey's family will have to listen to all the garbage, and relive his tragic death while everyone wonders why...why do we have a system that allows killers to walk the streets....only God knows, Bless you, Deputy Summey, you did your job...

KY Peace Officer Isaiah 40:31

TONEY IS NOW FLYING WITH ANGELS, HE WILL KEEP A SPECIAL EYE ON THOSE REMAINING ON EARTH. HE WILL BE MISSED, AND REMEMBERED.

Rest in peace brother.

Burlington Township PD NJ

My condolences to the family, community, and loved ones of Deputy Summey. Deputy Summey, I am sorry for your death as a result of yet another domestic violence event.

Hopefully one day we will have other options, safer options, in dealing with this most dangerous situation. Since you and St. Michael are now on the same shift, see if you can get him to give some rational guidance to those who make the rules, to change the rules, that we currently have to suffer with and die by.

May God bless your eternal soul.

Deputy Chris Harper
Putnam County SO, Georgia

So many times we make these kind of calls and so many times we walk away without a problem. But still one of the most dangerous calls we deal with, please be careful. To Deputy Summeys family, friends and co-workers may God give you comfort and ease during this trying time. What a true hero Deputy Summey was and what courage he displayed protecting others. Rest in peace Brother Toney you will never be forgotten.
