Your killer had just gotten out of prison. How comforting to know she did her time. Bah. We can only hope she gets the help she needs to kick this drug habit, that took your life, and get any additional help she needs while sitting for decades in prison where, God willing, she can't kill anyone else and take anyone else away from their children.
May God bless you and keep you forever at peace in Heaven, Brother.

I feel how weak and fruitless must be any word of mine which should attempt to beguile you from the grief of a loss so overwhelming. But I cannot refrain from tendering you the consolation that may be found in the thanks of the Republic they died to save. I pray that our Heavenly Father may assuage the anguish of your bereavement, and leave you only the cherished memory of the loved and lost, and the solemn pride that must be yours to have laid so costly a sacrifice upon the altar of freedom.
Yours, very sincerely and respectfully,

Deputy Valdez,
On to your reward, rest well in His arms.
To Your Family,
Feel His presence as God answers the prayers of many who have fallen to their knees on your behalf. Since the day of my son's death, I have carried every law enforcement officer and their family in my heart.
Every morning I go to my knees. During that time I pray:
“Lord, Be with all law enforcement officers. Keep them safe and free from harm. They are your soldiers on the front line of the battle against evil. If one should fall this day - wrap their family in your loving arms. Surround them with Your angels, family and loving, caring people to comfort them. Ease their pain. Help them to mourn well. In Jesus' name, Amen”
I have lifted you and your family to God every morning for the past three years. Feel those prayers. God is with you; He knows and will ease your pain.
Our faith helps us see beyond the grave.
