Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

My heart is saddened by yet another senseless loss of a law enforcement person. My thoughts and prayers are with Deputy Etheridge's family, friends and co-workers. May this Deputy also be remembered as the HERO he was. I know my husband was there in heaven to greet a fellow brother. May God cover all of you with comfort. Rest in peace, Deputy Etheridge!

What a special person it takes to do what Deputy Etheridge did. Day in and day out, making our community a little bit safer, what a hero. My thoughts are with his family right now, I hope you find some comfort in knowing that what he did is honorable and good. In my eyes he is a great man. RIP in peace Deputy Brian Etheridge.

May God hold your hand during this horrific time. I know how bad it is because my son was EOW. 2/7/08 in Kirkwood, Mo.

Pray, pray, pray and surround yourself with family and friends. Keep in mind that this hero has joined with many more heroes in a much different place than we can imagine.

May God be with you always.
