Hi brother in blue! Today I am missing you. Funny how this anniversary always creeps up on me. I will put out the flowers and make seven layer bars for the family. You have forever changed my life and taught me how to be a better friend. Love you always!!

Almost nine years now and I still feel like you should be here. I miss you so much. You were always there for me when I needed you the most. I need you now, but I can't pick up the phone and text or call. I never imagined you would not be here.

I think of you every day. I miss you to a level I cannot express. I lost you and did not even know it. You will forever hold a special place in my heart. You were the best man I have ever known. I hope to see you again.

I pray that everyone can find peace in knowing that we will see this officer as well as many others again in Paradise soon. Until then, please accept my condolences.

Matthew Tyner
Colorado Springs Motorcycle Police Officer

Valor has shown you made the step
Your life excelled; far from inept
Every day was an uphill battle to win
As a young man, you often asked when
When will the crown lay upon my head?
Family, true friends; yes, you were led
Led to adhere to the colors you wore
Your first day out, inside you swore
Swore to uphold truth and law
What happened next, no one saw
We see every day, trying to sustain
The ever present dogma wearing at our brain
You were taken for a reason, all can surmise
Rainy day nights, star lit skies
You are now in a place of peaceful sound
Amazing how this happens, you’re heaven bound
You did all you could, you showed you’re might
You’re in the Lords’ lap, no more fight
Please look down, bless all you can
You’re the lucky one, you’re with the Man!!!

I never dreamed it would be me,
My name for all eternity,
Recorded here at this hallowed place
Alas, my name, no more my face.
"In the line of duty, I hear them say:
My family now the price to pay.
My folded flag stained with their tears;
We only had those few short years.
The badge no longer on my chest,
I sleep now in eternal rest.
My sword I pass to those behind,
And pray they keep this thought in mind.
I never dreamed it would be me,
And with heavy heart and bended knee,
I ask for all here from the past:
Dear God, let my name be the last.
