God Bless Officer McCandless, his family and friends. I might share with you some words which have sustained me through long dark nights of peril, loss and heartache and I quote; "I pray that our Heavenly Father may assuage the anguish of your bereavement, and leave you only the cherished memory of the loved and lost, and the solemn pride that must be yours to have laid so costly a sacrifice upon the altar of freedom."
