I come to this site often and am deeply saddened to see that another officer not only lost his life, but on Christmas, and not only struck by a vehicle, but also while investigating a traffic accident, earily similiar to my cousins death. Tonight I will say an extra prayer, not only for my cousin's family, but Trooper Engelhard, his family, friends, and fellow officers. May you all find strength and comfort in the difficult times to come and know that you are not alone.
