Brian,
You are and will always be greatly missed. You were one of the sweetest troopers I have ever had the pleasure to work with. I know everyone who knew and worked with you would agree that it things will never be the same not being able to hear you mark up on the radio with your 6-5-5 headquarters. (the way you dragged it out always made us laugh). Thank you for making the ultimate sacrifice. May God rest your soul.

To Brian's family:
I am truly and deeply sorry for your pain and loss. To Melissa and the girls, Brian was a HERO and he loved you guys very much. I hope you can take some comfort in that. May God bless your family..

Guardian Angel
by
Bradley Wilt


The Man in Green,
Works hard everyday.
For the love of his job,
No matter the pay.

Such a brave soul,
Has fought and now died.
He knows many miss him,
Through tears we have cried.

Putting his life on the line,
Each day, evening, or night.
Strong, dedicated, and caring,
This Trooper had fight.

The man should have wings,
He's sent from above.
His family, friends, and Troopers
He gave them his love.

Long nights with no sleep,
Thank God for his pride.
Our Guardian Angel gave us,
The safe feeling inside.

Here to protect and serve,
No matter the cost.
Without this Guardian Angel,
The world would be lost.

Be it domestics, running radar,
Or your basic home alarm.
We could count on our Angel
To keep us from harm.

We're hurting without him,
This fearless, brave soul.
He'll never be forgotten,
No way to fill the hole.

But he's home now with Jesus.
To live his eternal life.
Protecting us from heaven,
Blessing his daughters and wife.

He's completed his watch,
And not for the fame.
He's our Guardian Angel,
And TROOPER is his name.

Trooper Linn will be missed by all. May God bless your family, friends, and fellow Troopers with his hand to protect them now that he has called you home.

Bradley
