“REMEMBER ME”
Law enforcement officers are, indeed, a special breed of people. Ask anyone on the street and they will tell you that they would not have our jobs for anything in the world. It takes something special to do what we do and at the same time be able to even contemplate retirement. We try to be optimists. Unfortunately, there are a few of us who will never make that date with retirement. By the very nature of our job, we are at risk everyday of losing our lives, either at the hand of some deranged individual or in some other situation that we, by virtue of our occupation, may be unable to avoid. Some people have recognized the hazardous duties we involve ourselves in, the risks we take, and the pride we take in accomplishing that job. There is National Law Enforcement Week, dedicated to us who gladly accept the responsibility of protecting the citizens in our respective jurisdictions. National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Day is dedicated to those who gave their lives in the line of duty. These are but two examples of remembrances specifically for law enforcement personnel. Remembrances that come but once a year. We should remind fellow officers of another type of remembrance, one that will last a lifetime. Sooner or later, a doctor will pronounce us dead. It is inevitable. Regardless of whatever happens, death is the end we will all have to face.

To the family, friends and fellow officers of Detective Wilcox, I know there are no words to comfort you at this time, but please know that we hold you close in our hearts. We grieve with you. Such a huge loss. I will never understand WHY. Although I never met Detective Wilcox I am sure he was a dedicated officer and a wonderful man.

To the family and friends of Detective Kenneth Wilcox,
May God wrap you in his arms and give you comfort. 19 years is a long time to give to the community. I am sure Det. Wilcox will be sadly missed. You are only beginning this journey that I would not wish on any one. Hold on to one another and give each other comfort.
Detective Wilcox, May you rest in peace.

To the Family of Detective Wilcox,
May you find some peace in knowing that your loved one is a TRUE HERO. That word is thrown around too lightly in today's world. These men and women who get up every morning and go to a job, a job that serves and protects all of us, and they don't know if they will ever walk back through their own front door again that evening. I am one who wants to Thank You Detective Wilcox for the sacrifice you gave so that others, as myself, would have the chance to live in a safer world.
