The men and women of the Littleton New Hampshire Police Department worked closely with Bruce on many occasions and we will all miss him very much. Bruce was a very dedicated officer, not only to the Town of Franconia but to all the towns in the surrounding area. You could always count on Bruce to be there to back you up no matter what the situation. Our thoughts and prayers are with Bruce, his family and fellow officers.

My thoughts and prayers are with this police officer, his family and his agency. God bless that U.S. Marine for utilizing his training to help a law enforcement officer. His actions mean more than I can express with my own words.

After reading this, I definitely have a renewed respect for those who serve our country.

“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.
