To the family of SA Thomas Cromwell and his Air Force Family at Det. 301 Scott Air Force Base. I met Tom about a year and a half back when I was bing recruited for OSI RE. I really enjoy talking with him and he made me very at ease during my conversations with him. I knew he would set me with straight honest answers. He always took the time to answer my calls. He will be missed. God Bless and God Speed.

My deepest sympathy and prayers go out to your family and friends. My son is in the Airforce, so I know that the entire Airforce family has suffered a loss also. I know that the Angels have carried you and your fellow Agents high into the heavens above, where as you are 10-4 forever more in the loving arms of God."A Hero does not become a Hero by their death, but by how they lived their life." God Bless!

To the family, friends, and officers that knew Agent Crowell, my thoughts and prayers are with you as you face the trying times ahead of you. Please know your not alone.
Here I am, lost in the light of the moon that comes through my window
Bathed in blue, the walls of my memory divide the thorns from the roses
It's you and the roses
Touch me and I will follow in your afterglow
Heal me from all this sorrow
As I let you go I will find my way when I see your eyes
Now I'm living in your afterglow
Here I am, lost in the ashes of time, but who wants tomorrow?
In between the longing to hold you again
I'm caught in your shadow, I'm losing control
My mind drifts away, we only have today
Touch me and I will follow in your afterglow
Heal me from all this sorrow
As I let you go I will find my way
I will sacrifice 'til the blinding day when I see your eyes
Now I'm living in your afterglow
When the veils are gone as I let you go, as I let you go
Touch me and I will follow in your afterglow
Heal me from all this sorrow
As I let you go I will find my way, I will sacrifice
Now I'm living in your afterglow
Bathed in blue, the walls of my memory divide the thorns from the roses
It's you who is closest

"A coward turns away, but a brave man's choice is danger."
While this quote describes all law enforcement, it is particularly appropriate here. This warrior ran to the sounds of battle while others ran away. He is a true hero and I salute him for his life and honor him for his sacrifice.
