Reflections for Trooper David James DeLaittre
I was lucky enough to work at the jail you brought inmates to. The world is a lesser place because your not here. I pray that you are getting your just reward with the blessed almighty, the reward that you deserve. I will miss you and Rest in Peace. Job well done.

I was having trouble putting my thoughts together when I came across a poem...
"I understand your feelings, As you mourn each fallen mate, Knowing that their losses were Just cruel twists of hate,
I search my heart for something Significant to say, And I wish that I could be of help, To take some pain away, Would it help to say I'm grateful.." God Bless, Trooper David J. DeLaittre,and his family.

David,
You will be missed so much. I am so fortunate to have known you and to have been lucky enough to have went through the Academy with you. I wish we could have been stationed closer to each other so we could have hung out. I will always miss you my friend.
