My deepest condolences to the family, members of the department, and those served, at the loss of this Deputy. May faith, family, friends and time join together to ease everyone’s pain at this time of loss.
While many other career choices were certainly available, this officer chose to protect his fellow man, and for this we give everlasting thanks. As the Good Lord said, “Blessed are the Peacemakers.”
Thank you for your service, your convictions and moral character, as well as your devotion to duty. May you now rest in peace, knowing your fellow brothers and sisters will continue the Watch!

You were a good man, Matt. Thank you for living a life in service to your fellow man. You were an example of a true hero. I cherish the times (albeit short) each Sunday that we'd get together and just talk about whatever. Your laugh and smile will remain with me forever. I truly wish that there were more Matt Millers in this world - it would be a much better, happier, and funnier place.You are sorely missed...

Matt,
It is really weird knowing I won’t hear you on the radio tomorrow or ever again. My wife and I drove by the crash site tonight and neither one of us could say anything while we stared at the news vans..... It was an unusually quite ride home. You will be greatly missed. Our thoughts and condolences are with your wife and the rest of your family. Rest in Peace.
