Such a wonderful police officer Jason was. He always went above and beyond the call of duty for not just the police force, but for everyone else around him. He was taken away from his beautiful wife and daughters too early, and to imagine their pain is too heartwrenching. Rest in peace Jason, you will never, ever be forgotten!!!!

Since our daughters death in August 2002 (Melissa J. Schmidt) while on duty and killed by gunfire, we have come to really appreciate what police officer face every day. Your husband was a true cop, brave and willing to risk his life for all of us. Our hearts go out to you, your children and the family for this tragic loss. It is senseless and our prayers are that it will someday end...............

May God bless you and your children no words will make the pain go away as I have found out my beloved Glenn was also shot in the head by an animal.
I will pray for you all and know you are not alone.
Your husband is a true hero helping his fellow man.
May he walk in heaven with my Glenn and all the other brave men who have lost their lives to protect the lives of others.

To the co-workers and friends of Officer Jason Pratt, my sincere condolences to you for your loss of such a young officer. Our department lost an officer last week so I understand the pain that you are going through. Gain strength from one another in this time of need, it eases the pain.
To the family of Officer Jason Pratt-my heart goes out to you. I only can say that though I did not know this brave officer personally, I can tell you it takes a special person to do this job. This job brings people closer together, more than I realized until last week. Lean on those people, they are there for you for anything that you need.
Rest in Peace young warrior, protect us from your seat in heaven-we have your watch now.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say.
But first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from Heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; Here is just enternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I am with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through
God picked me up and hugged me and he said,'I welcome you.
It's good to have you back again, you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, They'll be here later on.
I need you here badly, you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.'
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night the days chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....In the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years.
Because you are only human they are bound to bring tears.
But do not be afraid to cry: it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
If I were to tell you, you would not understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is over.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you, and many hills to climb;
But together we can do it by taking one step at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you to;
That as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain;
Then you can say to God at night...."My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented...that my life was worthwhile.
Knowing as I passed along the way I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low:
Just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go...from that body to be free.
Remember you're not going...you're coming here to me.
I will always be with you!
We all from our Chat Room send our sympathies and condolences to the family and friends of Officer Pratt, and to all of his brothers and sisters in blue
GOD BLESS YOU ALL
