Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

To the family, friends, co-workers of Daniel and all other law enforcement men & women across the world, our thoughts and prayers go out to all of you. I never knew Daniel, but have had the opportunity to train, know and become friends with some of Huntsville's finest. Even though I did not know Daniel we were still brother's in Christ and in the law enforcement community. Daniel has not died, he has simply moved onto the next phase in his walk thru life. He will forever be in his new (permanent) assignment in Heaven, the greatest promotion anyone could recieve.

May God's comfort fill your hearts knowing that Daniel will always be remembered and loved. His dedication to what he believed in provided the stability of his resolve and integrity. Jesus be with you and comfort you in your time of grief... and goodbye to one of the best cut down in the prime.

My thoughts go to Daniel's family, some I know and some I don't, always know that everyone who knew him loved and respected him. He will not be forgotten and he will serve as an example to all of a great police officer and an even greater person. Sleep well, Brother.

To the family and friends of officer Golden, I would like to tell you that the agony and grief you feel will lessen over time, I just do not know if it really does. We also suffered a similar tragedy and I am waiting for the grief to be a little easier. I can tell by the amount of reflections on officer Goldens page that he was well liked and it will take a long time, just take care of each other and most definately take care of the family. God bless you all I will keep you in my daily prayers.

At night we pray
thanking GOD for another day
slowly drifting off to sleep
praying to the Lord my soul to keep

Waking the next day
not knowing what it will bring
whether fun and love
or anger and steam

doing a job
to serve and protect
answering many calls
not knowing what to expect

but when such a young life
has come to an end
just know he is with GOD
and Donessa you will see him again

As a dispatcher its the one thing you never want to hear is officer down, and i hope and pray i never do, your dispatchers send you on a routine call and never think you may not return. I shutter to think how i would feel if it was one of my own, but you can be assured that we all feel the brunt when you loose one we all do. To officer goldens family and friends fellow officers and dispatchers you are all in our thoughts.

Officer Golden was one of the best people I have known. Every time i close my eyes I hear his voice and see his face. I keep asking why was such a great man taken from us. I never remember a roll call where he walked in and the rest of us were not laughing. He always had a smile on his face and the ability to put a smile on your face as well. It seems like a part of me died with you. But i know that you are in a better place. Just know you will never be forgotten. It was a pleasure working with you. "Forever remembered, Never Forgotten!"
