Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Corp,
Every day we get to the barracks, strap on our gear, get in the patrol room for roll call, grab a car, and hit the road. We take the calls that come in, we make our traffic stops, we pick up the pieces of all the things that go wrong, and try to make them a little better. Somewhere in there, we get done what needs to be done, and rarely, if ever, stop to think about what we do.
Then, we get the news. “We lost a guy out west yesterday!” The story gets out fast; who, where, when, and how. Did we get the guys who did it?
And somewhere, sometime during that shift, we all stop, and wonder, why? Why do we do this?
Not an easy question to answer when you’re making a stop in the middle of nowhere, nearest back up might be 30 minutes away, and things aren’t looking so good.
And then, we remember. Because guys like you showed us the way. Showed that even when things go ultimately wrong, we still do our duty, and say, “I am a Pennsylvania State Trooper, a Soldier of the Law…”

May the Good Lord bless you and keep you, may His light shine upon you, May His Love guide you, and may you have Eternal rest in His arms.

Your bravery and dedication is a shining example to all of us. Although the pain is great when a fellow officer dies, it cannot match the pain that your family feels. I will be praying for them. God bless you and your family

Corp. Pokorny, You will be remembered by every law enforcer. Justice will be served in your favor. I wish peace to your family, friends and co-workers. The news of a fellow brother who has fallen is always horrible, even to those who never met them. It takes a special kind of person to put a badge on their chest knowing that danger is ever present. For this every brother/sister that puts on a badge is marked brave in my book. Rest in Peace Brother..We'll keep fighting the good fight for you...Godspeed
