Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

We offer our heartfelt sympathy to the family, friends and colleagues of Officer Russell and we honor his distinguished service to the cause of justice and peace. Sadly, our nation has lost one of its finest citizens, a community has lost a friend and protector, and a family has lost an example of character and courage who they will love and respect forever. Today, because of the sacrifice Officer Russell has made, the house of freedom is stronger, sturdier, and more secure.

To the family and friends of Officer Russell, I would like you to know that a lot of people pray for you, and my hope is that their prayers will give you the strength necessary to move on. Just as you were always with him when he walked the beat or patrolled the streets, know that he will always be with you - wherever you may be. In the days to follow, may you be strengthened by the fact that Officer Russell is a man distinguished by exceptional courage and will always be admired for his brave deeds and noble qualities. You, your family and your sacrifice will never be forgotten.

There has to be a special place God has for cops and others in our line of work. Some have to leave us before their time. Others pay their respects to the fallen and their families. Npw there is one more gone, but never forgotten.
