Kent you will never be forgotten. You were a brother to us all and you will continue on in our hearts and through your family. Go with the Lord and continue your path of service. To the Haws family. Words can not take away the pain you must be feeling, but know this. Your husband and father was a hero. He dedicated his life to keeping other's safe, a virtue which can not be taught or learned. Kent lived a honorable life, and in honor there will always be valor.

"The public sleeps peacefully at night knowing rough men stand ready to face evil and serve justice on their behalf."

I'll miss you Kent.

All your brothers.

For the spouses and lovers left behind... grieve, but hold on to the good memories.

The lake is frozen over
The trees are white with snow
And all around
Reminders of you
Are everywhere I go

It's late and morning's in no hurry
But sleep won't set me free
I lie awake and try to recall
How your body felt beside me
When silence gets too hard to handle
And the night too long

And this is how I see you
In the snow on Christmas morning
Love and happiness surround you
As you throw your arms up to the sky
I keep this moment by and by

Oh I miss you now, my love
Merry Christmas, merry Christmas,
Merry Christmas, my love

Sense of joy fills the air
And I daydream and I stare
Up at the tree and I see
Your star up there

And this is how I see you
In the snow on Christmas morning
Love and happiness surround you
As you throw your arms up to the sky
I keep this moment by and by
