To Tpr Barry's family:
From everything that everyones says about Paul, he loved you and he loved his job. Being a police officer is not just what we do, it's who we are. If he could speak to us, I'm sure he'd say that he died doing the job he loved and worked so hard to get. Hold your heads high and be proud! Paul died a hero, and you have a larger family now than you ever did before - all of us in law enforcement. God bless you and Paul! You know where to find ANY of us if you need to.
