Reflections for Police Officer Christopher Alan Wilson
I have fond memories of working around Chris at Southeastern Patrol. I made him my point man for Mobile Field Force, due to his "defensive end" like size. He was always a "rock" in the field and the type of officer that a sergeant was proud to have on a squad. In fact, years later I selected him for my "San Diego Chargers Security Detail" because I knew he could take care of business if the 65K crowd became alcohol enraged. However, Chris was an intelligent man with excellent people skills. He was diplomatic and didn't need to toss people around to restore order. He was made to be a peace keeper and he did it well. It was an honor and privilege to work alongside Chris. I will truly miss him and never forget him. 10-42 Chris and may you rest in peace for all eternity. I'll see you in heaven where you belong, my friend.

God Bless you Officer Chris Wilson. My thoughts, my love and prayers go out to you and your precious family. God Bless my PD family and all the men & women of law enforcement, I love you All. ♥
Oh Lord, While I'm on my beat may I know that you're with me, and protect me as I go to guard other's lives and property. Help me ignore those who scorn And show me no respect, but be mindful of all citizens I've sworn to protect. Be with my fellow officers And guard their safety too. May I always put duty first in the work that I must do. May I not disgrace the uniform but bring pride to the badge I wear. That I'd be a good policeman Lord, would be my only prayer. Amen

Officer Wilson - You looked danger in the face and did your job. I can only hope that I can display a fraction of your courage and committment if ever confronted with the same situation. May your family, friends and co-workers be comforted in the aftermath of your loss. Thank you for your service to the people of San Diego and the state of California. May God grant you eternal rest and may His perpetual light shine upon you.
