The only thing necessary for evil to prosper is for good men to do nothing. The instant you chose to wear the badge, you chose to change this world for the better. I could only hope to leave this place knowing that I have changed it for the better. You brother, have..rest in peace. You will not be forgotten.

OFFICER COLEMAN MAY YOU REST IN PEACE. THANK YOU FOR THE ULTIMATE SACRIFICE THAT YOU MADE. TO YOUR SONS AND FAMILY... THIS MAN WAS A HERO. HE GAVE HIS LIFE PROTECTING YOU AND LOOKING OUT FOR HIS PARTNER. MY FATHER WAS SHOT AND KILLED 16 YEARS AGO. HE WAS AND WILL FOREVER BE MY HERO. I THINK ABOUT ALL OF THE LAUGHTER AND GOOD TIMES THAT WE HAD TOGETHER. SO MANY NIGHTS I DREAM THAT I AM A LITTLE GIRL AGAIN AND MY FATHER IS THERE WITH ME. A FEW NIGHTS AGO I DREAMED THAT WE PAINTED MY MOTHERS LIVING ROOM AN AWFUL RED COLOR. MY MOTHER WAS TELLING US THAT IT WAS HORRIBLE. MY FATHER AND I WAS ROLLING ON THE GROUND LAUGHING. YOUR MEMORIES WILL HELP GET YOU THROUGH THESE HARD TIMES. YOU ARE SO SPECIAL AND BLESSED TO HAVE A FATHER, SON AND BROTHER AS PATROLMAN COLEMAN.

Man, I never thought I'd be leaving a reflection for you. I can't believe I'm doing this. I guess all I can say is that I'll miss you, and I'm going to carry you in my heart from here on. Do me a favor and watch over all of us down here. I love and miss you, and we'll never forget you.
