Reflections for Deputy Sheriff Kenneth James Collier
Ken was a sincere, kind-hearted friend who easily gained the respect and admiration of everyone who knew him. I met Ken right out of high school and knew he would find his place to serve and protect. My condolences go out to Ken's friends and family. I'll miss you buddy, and always remember you.

My family and I are dealing with a recent line of duty death, and the words of many on this board have been of some comfort to us. Please know that we and many others understand your pain and we grieve with you.
