Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Oh, Mrs. Green, I can't stop crying for you and your girls. I have imagined myself in your shoes more times than I can recall, every time my husband goes out to sea.
I know no words of cheer can help you get though this, but please know the rest of the world isn't simply continuing on without your husband as if he never existed.
My brother serves in OHP and knew your husband and admired him a great deal. I will thank God every day that atleast for a while your husband patrolled the roads along with the other officers. We never know how many of them may have been a hair's breadth away from some horrible fate, when Nikky J. Green came to their rescue either directly or indirectly...or how many might choose to be Saved because of the higher love he used his life to testify to.
For your girls my heart only has an unending flow of tears, and I would rock them if I could until they felt better. May our Lord give you His strength to find the right words to comfort them as well as console your own heart, in those quiet private hours. I will pray for you and them, as will my 4 year old daughter and my 2yr old son (well, he'll shout out the "amen" part anyway, but he sure does mean it:) )
Please understand too, that as military wives, we know Nikki's is no less a sacrifice for country than any soldier, sailor, marine, or airman. He devoted his life to the protection and salvation of the country from within. If it weren't for service like his (AND YOURS- believe me, I understand the little daily sacrifices you made/will have to make are as deserving of recognition as that which Nikki made) this country wouldn't be worth defending from foreign threat in the first place.

***NIK***---You are my hero and now I will do all I can to live for Christ as you did. Life will never be the same and it shouldn't be because you are irreplacable. There aren't any amount of words that can do justice when explaining what a wonderful CHRISTIAN man you were. Your loss has impacted hundreds of lives because you impacted hundreds before you left us. I know you would want us all to forgive the man who did this to you. I will forgive but I will never forget. Your family, friends, and co-workers will do all we can to spread the word of GOD and keep your legacy alive. God took the BEST, now we gotta take a step back, do some soul searching, and make ourselves better for you and God. You will continue to make a difference. You'll not soon be forgotten. To all of us youth, other than God, you are "Our father which art in Heaven." WE ALL LOVE YOU SO MUCH. Watch over us, lead, guide and protect us! AMEN!!!

LINDA AND GIRLS you all mean the world to me and if it were possible i'd gladly take your pain away and cast it upon myself. Only God and prayers will get you through this without anger and resentment. My prayers are with you and the family. You and the girls are the closest thing we have to Nik and I know he will live through ya'll. He was so into each and every one of you and he TRULY loved everybody! WE LOVE YOU ALL!

OHP and all other state troopers
My prayers are with you all. I have a new respect for what all of you do. you are all heroes in my eyes. May God bless you all. Know that my love is with you all and thank you so much for the time and dedication, just as Nik did i know being a state trooper is not just a job but a passion. It takes a certain kind of man or woman to do your jobs and you will be rewarded. Thanks for risking your lives everyday to protect us all even those who don't deserve it.



YOU ALL GIVE ME STRENGTH TO PRESS ON!!! GOD BLESS US ALL!!!

I am always shocked and saddened to learn of the death of a brother officer, even more so when it is one of our own here in Oklahoma. When I learned of Trooper Green's murder on Friday morning I was stunned, angered, grieving, and a host of other emotions. I know mere words cannot take away the pain of the loss of this good man's life. I do hope that in some way the family and friends of Nikky will take some comfort in knowing that a huge family of fellow officers, their families and friends share in the loss and send their heartfelt thanks for Nikky and those like him, as well as their deepest sympathy.

As a former Oklahoma Trooper I know the pride Nikky felt at being part of the OHP. Although I left the patrol almost ten years ago, many of Nikky’s fellow troopers are still my good friends today.

I have been torn all weekend because I have not been part of the hunt for Nikky’s killer. I do know that everything possible is being done to identify and bring to justice this man who has hurt us all so much. Some very fine people at several agencies are working very hard on this case and will not rest until every effort has been exhausted.

I will be there on Tuesday to be with all my brother and sister officers to pay tribute to Nikky. And until then stand ready to do whatever I might be called on to help bring his killer to justice.

Although I didnt know Trooper Green and his family my heart goes out to them. My son is also a State Trooper and I worry everytime he is on duty,But I cant let that get to me because he loves what he does as I know that Trooper Green did to.God must have needed him now for some unknown reason.Right know it doesnt make since to call him home at this time but in time he will let his family know the reason. God Bless them and they will be in my prayer. Cindy Costanza

To the Family and Friends of Nik Green,

I'm afraid there is little I can say, at a moment like this, to take away the loss and sadness you are all suffering. I can only add that every time I was fortunate enough to work with Nik he was a consumate professional and treated everyone with respect. He will be deeply missed by those fortunate enough to have known him. It is time like these that really test your faith but I know that God truly has a plan and Trooper Nik Green will undoubtedly be playing a big part in this plan. God Bless and God Speed Nik, You will truly be missed.

I am so sorry this happened to Trooper Green. My thoughts are with his family, friends and Fellow Troopers.

All of us here at the Carnegie Police Department consider Troop G as part of our extended family because they patrol our area and we deal with them on a daily basis. As a dispatcher, officer down or shots fired is the most bone chilling words you can hear on the radio. My thoughts are with Trooper Green's family and my Troop G family as well as all the other brave OHP officers. We are all members of one big family and justice will be ours to proudly serve to the one deserving of it, but "Vengence is Mine sayeth the Lord!"
