My condolences and I pray that the strength and blessings of our Lord are received by Chris's family and his extended family at the Waldwick Police Department. Having not known Chris is my loss; but having retired from law enforcement and having served in the Corps, I have lost a brother in arms. The loss of a brother is the hardest thing, as it shows that we cared and that we loved. I know this, Chris cared and he loved this is of what he came from and what he did.

Rest in peace brother; please protect the streets of heaven until we are there to assume our shift.

I will never forget you and all the great times we had together in the Marines. You brightened the lives of everyone around you. You were a true friend. I was an honor and a privilege to know you and serve with you. You will be missed Goodie, you were the best of us.

God is with the Goodell family as are the prayers of everyone in law enforcement and their families. A tragic event which will cause a void that can never truly be filled, though if those who know and love Officer Goodell best keep him eternally in their hearts and minds, he will never really be gone.

God Bless and may you forever Rest in Peace, Brother.

To the out of state Deputy who rushed to assist Officer Goodell, you too are a true hero. You selflessly hastened to the assistance of a Brother Officer without hesitation or thought of your own safety. I thank God you are well and than you for your heroism.

First and foremost, my heart goes out to the Goodell family and his beautiful fiancé. You are all in my thoughts and prayers during this extremely difficult time.

I am lucky to have had the opportunity in this lifetime to call Chris my friend. He was a truly unique soul and wonderful person, no matter how much time passed between phone calls or run-ins, it was always as if we had just seen eachother. I will always remember his laugh and how he got everyone around him to laugh even more. He loved serving our country. He loved being a Marine and I remember so clearly how excited he was when he got the position of being a police officer in our home town. I haven't lived in Waldwick in years but my parents still do and I always felt a sense of security knowing he was there looking out for our lovely town and my family. This is quite a loss, one I can't even fully comprehend at the moment. It just doesn't seem real.

Thank you for your service, your friendship and all the laughs and memories throughout the years, Chris. You may be gone but you will never be forgotten.

A police officer should be remembered not by how he died, but how he lived! A great man has gone to secure a safe path for the rest of us to follow. Thank you to you, your family and the Waldwick Police Department. Our country is a little less safe without you. Rest in Peace Brother!
