May I express my deepest and sincerest condolences to Ofc. Dunn's family and friends. This is a horrible tragedy, but this nation will not forget the bravery and valor with which he served us during his short tour of duty. This horrifying loss falls right on the heels of us losing one of our own here in Cathedral City. May we all draw strength from one another, though we may be thousands of miles apart, that our love for these brave men and all of those who serve us and put their lives on the line in the line of duty will ensure that they will never be forgotten.

His Judgment Day:
The officer stood and faced his God, Which must always come to pass. He hoped his shoes were shinning, Just as brightly as his brass.
"Step forward now, Officer, How shall I deal with you? Have you always turned the other cheek To my church have you been true?"
The officer squared his shoulder and said, "No, Lord, I guess I aint, Because those of us who carry badges can't always be a saint.
I've had to work most Sundays, And at times my talk was rough, And sometimes I've been violent Because the streets are tough.
But I never took a penny That wasn't mine to keep.. Though I worked a lot of overtime, when the bills got too steep.
And I never passed a cry for help Though at times I shook with fear. And sometimes, God forgive me, I've wept an unmanly tear.
I know I don't deserve a place among the people here. They never wanted me around except to calm their fear.
If you've a place for me here, Lord, it needn't be so grand. I never expected or had too much, But if you don't...I'll understand.
There was silence all around the throne, where the saints often trod. As the officer waited quietly for the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now, Officer. You've borne your burdens well. Come walk a beat on heaven's streets, You've done your time in hell"

We will remember how you lived, loved, and gave your life for what you believed in.
I would give my life for you in an instant, whether you are a Stranger or Friend. I do not ask what in your life you have done wrong up to this point, I act on instinct to protect and save whether you are a perfect saint or a convicted violent Offender, Because that is my job.
I am a Police Officer and When I chose to wear the Badge, I chose to help those in need. Each call I take could be my last. I accept that and each day put on the Uniform and the Badge, I say goodbye to my family as I walk out onto the streets, knowing that today could be the day I don't come home at the end of my shift
Your shift is now over here. Your loved one know you are now on duty with a much higher power.
R.I.P. Ofc. Dunn.

Andy was always fair, sometimes beyond fair. He was always happy to smile, crack a joke, or just be a good fellow. He will be sorely missed by those of us in the civilian field that often have to rely on the Sandusky Police Dept.
