Reflections for Police Officer Richard Anthony Champion
To the wife, child, family and police family of Officer Champion:
A life stricken down too early is not easy to understand, certainly our Great God of mercy and salvation will indelibly record the sacrifice of Officer Champion. May many Angels of comfort securely covet all of you during this loss and may we remember how he lived, not how he left us. God be with you all. From NC.
