Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family, friends, and co-workers of this officer. From reading his tributes, he sounds just like the kind of officer my husband was. To his wife: I know how you feel and I am feeling your pain. July 15th will mark the second anniversary of my husband's death. It is still very hard. People will tell you that time will heal. Time will NOT heal but will SLOWLY makes things easier to handle.
To MT Rich: Thank you brother for your ultimate sacrifice. Watch over your family, friends, and co-workers from Heaven. I'm sure my husband will be honored to show you around !!! God Speed...
