A very good police friend of ours died in a car fire related accident several years ago in Abilene, TX. Reading the description of Officer Willingham's death made me so sad. I will pray for his family and fellow officers who will no doubt miss him on the beat and at the station. Rest in Peace Officer Willingham!

With pride and integrity they say "To serve and protect"
for the giving of their life we offer our respects
We remember the officers who we never really knew
Persons strong enough to answer the challenge are few
with heavy hearts we mourn the officers in eternal rest
There's more to these people than the badge on their chest.
prayers to the officer's families and know he was doing what he wanted to do and was the man he was because of those who loved and cared about him,
