Reflections for Police Officer Shaun Richard Diamond

"I did not know you personally but we are family, we never broke bread together but you are my brother. You are my blood brother and the only difference between us and them is that our blood bleeds blue instead of red. Officer Shaun Diamond you are a true hero and your courageous sacrifice will never be forgotten. You have made an impact like no other. During the 20 mile caravan to your final resting place thousands came out to the street including children with signs saying how much you have touched their hearts and lives. For miles on end Firefighters, men and women of uniform and veterans stood on top of their engines saluting you. You will live on forever in our hearts. I am truly honored to have gotten to know you today and to share in the celebration of your life. Sleep well brother we got it from here."

The service and commitment of this officer can not be measured, nor can the loss felt by his family and loved ones. Officer Diamond, you are a hero whom I will never be properly able to show my gratitude for helping to ensure the safety in a community so close to where I live. God bless you and yours, brother.

Shaun as I write this its with a tear in my eye and a crater in my heart. As a new officer 8 years ago you were my mentor who helped me through training and always had a positive word of encouragement. The two years we we able to share as squad mates were two years I will always remember. I hope you know the impact you made on the people around you. I thank you for being my mentor but most I thank you most for being my friend. I wish we were closer but for now I lift my glass of Jack and Ginger and toast you.

You gave your life in service to your community. God speed and please give my best to our brothers and sisters who have gone before us. Thank you for your service sir.

I am deeply sorry for your loss. Being the breach officer on an entry team is one of the most dangerous jobs any officer can have. We recently lost a female officer in the city where I live doing the exact same thing Officer Diamond was doing. You will be sorely missed by your family, friends and fellow officers. Godspeed, Officer Diamond.

Just a couple of weeks before this happened I saw you at the station and told you, again, that you were still my hero. You grinned such a small grin, because you remembered. I had called you out to assist because I could not find the VIN on a Volkswagen. If you had not responded I would have never found it under the back seat.

You always gave of yourself, whether it was in a dangerous situation, or whether it was something very small. For this, you will always remain "My Hero." You will be greatly missed.

May God Rest your Soul, Officer Shaun Diamond.
