Thank you from defending our streets. Though we go to war to fight terrorism the American Public sometimes forgets that our own streets are filled with terrorists and our police officers are at risk. Thank you for being all you can be. Being a COPS Survivor, we will all be there for your family. Rest now.

Thank You SGT Stevenson for all the days and hours you gave of yourself so that me and my family may live in peace and safety and for most of all the ultimate sacrifice that you gave. What more can someone give than themselves. My heart is very heavy and I have cried many tears since hearing of your death.
To the Stevenson Family--May you find some comfort in knowing that your Husband and Father will always be a hero and that His sacrifice for the last 20 years is appreciated and will never be forgotten.
To the Ceres Police Dept. Thank you to everyone who everyday puts his life on the line so that me and my family can live in peace and safety.
