I was shocked to learn of this incident in the quiet community where I attended the academy. Harold, you will be missed and never forgotten.

I am in shock to read such a horrible notice, that another officer has been killed and also a wife? What has this world come to?????? Doesn't anyone have any values of life anymore? This is so devastating I can't even put into words what I feel right now. I know that family must be in such a state and as shocked as we are. No words seem to be the right thing to say except we will have you all in our prayers and thoughts. The only good thing that came out of this was that the suspects were killed, but what a shame they didn't suffer. Oh my!!!!!!
"A Part Of America Died",
Somebody killed a policeman today,
And part of America died.
A piece of our country he swore to protect,
Will be buried with him at his side.
The suspect that shot him will stand up in court,
With counsel demanding his rights.
While a young widowed mother must work for her kids,
And spend many long lonely nights.
The beat he walked was a battle field too
just as if he had gone off to war.
Though the flag of our nation won't fly at half mast,
To his name they will add a gold star.
Yes, somebody killed a policeman today,
In your town or mine,
While we slept in comfort behind locked doors,
A cop put his life on the line.
Now his ghost walks a beat on a dark city street,
And stands at each new rookies' side.
He answered the call,of himself and gave his all,
And a part of America died.
