Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

May the thoughts and prayers of a grateful nation bless your soul and aid your family, friends and associates at this tragically sorrowful time. You placed the safety of others before your own, and your ultimate sacrifice undoubtedly protected others from harm. To become an American hero due to a most senseless incident, hero nonetheless.

Thank you Ranger Anderson for standing for all that is good about humanity. You bravely went where others would retreat to face the adversary in the protection of your fellow men. Without brave officers like you, this world would be a darker place. May your light continue to shine brightly with your husband, little girls, coworkers, friends and family members. You have left footprints on the many hearts you have touched in your young life. Now, Rest In Peace as you enter the gates of Heaven to meet your Heavenly Father.

Prayers for the family and friends of Ranger Margaret Anderson. My family and I are long-time visitors to Mt. Rainier National Park and have nothing but respect and appreciation for the Rangers who
have contributed to our well-being and enjoyment when we've been in the park. Hopefully, the sleaze-ball who killed Ranger Anderson will be apprehended quickly and face appropriate punishment for the murder of a law enforcement officer.
