Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Bro:

It has been more than 02 years, and I still look for you in all of your "hiding spots" around Buena Park (sigh)...

Brother Pinchot,

May the road rise up to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
And the rains fall soft upon your fields,
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

Respectfully,
You’re Brothers in Blue

Hi Tyler,

I remember our days shooting against one another in California. You were one of the good guys. Rest in peace my friend.

I met Tyler at a baton instructor course in Sacramento, sometime around 1986. He became my driver and took me whereever I wanted to go.
He was a very giving person and the world is a lesser place without him.

Hey Tyler,
Thought about you the other day. I was at Sizzler with some buddies and it reminded me when you and our k-9 group would meet there. Then after you and Doug would volunteer to take bites from the canines. Lots of laughs.

"Dear Tyler, how long this year has been since your last ride". WE ARE SO PROUD OF TYLER for the job he did, and for bringing such joy into so many lives. Words can not express our emotion as we look back now to remember... and to appreciate the short time we had with our brother. He was dedicated to the job, and so we now dedicate to him (with much help and hard work from the BPPD) the wonderful memorials that have been laid in place. Our hearts remain heavy with the loss, but the pain is eased a bit by the love and concern we have received from the Police Dept, and the many many people who have come from all around to share their stories and experiences with Tyler. Thank you too for taking the time to learn about our brother. Our sincerest thanks to our very special Law Enforcement Family. Tyler was so very lucky to be a part of that and he now shares you with us!

My brother Tyler was our hero. We had no idea how many lives he touched until after his accident and subsequent death. There hasn't been a day since his accident and passing that I haven't thought about him and missed him.

I want to thank each and everyone that has taken the time to write in their personal reflection about my brother. It has been a great comfort to all of us and we appreciate it.

I met Tyler about 20 years ago, at a training class in Sacramento. He was a true gentleman and easily liked. It is difficult to believe that he is no longer with us, he will be missed.

Tyler I miss you so much. Not a day goes by when I don't think about your wonderful smile. Each time my phone rings I expect to hear your voice. Time does not make our loss any easier. You have been my hero for the last 20 years. I love you and I miss you.

I did not know Tyler, however, I was watching TV this evening and stopped changing the channel during the euology for him. I was so touched by the love and admiration people had for Tyler. The photos of his life kept me from channel hopping. It looks like he had a wonderfully full and happy life. I had missed the beginning of the service, so I had no idea of how he left this earth. I went online and discovered this website. Thank you very much to Tyler and his family for his ultimate sacrafice. Thanks to all the families listed here that have lost their loved ones too.
Sincerely, Just a Mom in Placentia who was touched by his beautiful service...

Officer Pinchot, I'm sadened to know that we have lost another officer in the line of duty. But, you did what you do because you chose it. You walked the thin blue line between warrior and servant and your community is grateful for your sacrifice. May God provide your family with swift closure in their loss, and to yourself, fast winds to your next assignment in heaven, as you walk those streets under his command. A huge reward is awaiting you. In the meantime, please watch over us and the remaining peace officers that will continue the watch in your absence. Goodnight sir.

I know that you are looking down from heaven and keeping us safe from there. I thank you for keeping our streets and our children safe. You will never be forgotten brother.
