Thank you for your courageous service and bravery to the people of Mount Raineir and the area you protected Ranger Anderson, ultimately with the greatest sacrifice of all, your life. We all know the dangers and willingly place ourselves in harms way to protect and serve. Losing a fellow sister is the hardest. May your family and friends find peace and comfort knowing you are part of Gods Officers protecting the streets of gold. Mostly important, I pray your children make it through this horribly traumatic time. God speed and you will never be forgotten my sister, my fellow officer, and my sister in law enforcement. Even though I never knew you, my eyes are filled with tears for those who did. Thank you Ranger Anderson.

Margaret was a polished, well-rounded professional in the National Park Service. She took her job protecting parks and people seriously--although nothing was more important than her Faith, Love for Eric, and Family.

TO: The family; loved ones; friends and department members: A POLICE OFFICER’S PRAYER : O, gentle Lord! Keep the day / night watch with me. As I begin my tour of duty, I ask your protection from all mental, physical and spiritual harm. Sustain me with the knowledge that I am doing your work, endeavoring to keep peace among your people. Help me to be just as I enforce the law without prejudice or favor to anyone. May I be courageous but not reckless in carrying out my duties. Let me respond to all calls with haste realizing that so many are dependent on me for life and safety. Support me with your consoling power when I am tempted to think that no one really cares and that I am taken for granted. Sustain in me the conviction that so many thousands do care and are grateful for my presence. Grant that I may be loyal to my partner and my fellow officers, and that I may back them up effectively when called upon for assistance. Lord, I ask that I may return safely, after my tour of duty, to my loved ones and those who love me. I pray that I may be a good and honorable police officer; and after my tour of duty is over here on earth, may I enjoy the peace and happiness of heaven that you have promised to those who serve you well. AMEN. ** REST IN PEACE**
