I did not know Police Officer Sean Collier. But I am proud of him just the same. He gave his life during a very troubling time. He paid the altimate price to see the the situation come to an end. And because of what he did and the actions of so many others, those troubling times...are over. But for those who knew Police Officer Sean Collier, you are left with troubling times of your own. Missing him. Nothing can be said to ease the sadnesss you are feeling. But when you walk through the streets of my home town Boston and you see people walking around, unafraid. That is because of Police Officer Sean Collier.

GOOD prevails over evil. Terrorism can not happen in Boston, because Bostonians refuse to be terrorized and work until the problem is solved
and our populace as safe as possible in this world full of a few rotten apples, I am so proud and relieved to see violence in Boston will be dealt with by good police and authorities so we citizens can remain free, because our authorities are brave, camazingly well trained & competent and dedicated and brave! THANK YOU TO THOSE RESPONSIBLE FOR GIVING US all, folks like OFFICER COLLIER ...HIS PARENTS, TO HIS TEACHERS, TO HIS FRIENDS AND FAMILY, He will rest in peace! And because of him,
and his compatriots, WE Americans,CAN TOO! God has blessed America!
May we always strive to return the favor!

Something that we talked about the 6 years that I knew you buddy was how we want to make a difference on this job and help others. I can say Sean that you risked your life for all of us that night and you are a hero I am so proud of you, just like your family is. We all miss you very much buddy, thank you for everything you have done I love you.

Officer Collier,
Your selflessness and devotion to duty will always be respectfully remembered. You are the hero others can only hope to be.

The world is a better place because of you.

It's over for now. Go easy brother. I know we always think about the judicial side of things...but you don't have to. If we were lawyers that would be our job. You've gone your earthy job. Your job has only just begun though. There are many who will need your wings. I feel like I'm preaching to the choir. So I won't. Go easy bro. Your never alone...either are we.
