I & my family are so sorry to hear of Adam's passing.
Mr. Cardell's L. Dobbins's( RET. LE ) reflection was so moving
& honest( We'll use ti too encourage our Officers) ... Sometimes amist the problems of life , we forget the Purpose for our children , spouses, parents ect. , to wear the Badge ... So many sorrows they see & endure, so much horror ... the worst evil in man & yet they engage it's beauty as well , rescueing a child from a pedophile, abuse, a fire ... helping a woman bring a child into the world , & it being named after him , doing many dangerous deeds to be a Hero ... raising money for charities, Taking part in the Honor Guard for Vets Day ... Supporting Soldiers of war ... holding a woman in your arms, who has just been raped ... telling her it's gonna be okay , "I 'll catch him !!!"And you do ...
You do so much good ... don't forget that on the hard days, the sad days, the tiring days.
We thank you Adam for your unselfih service.
RIP Adam Son of Valor, with Honor.
Gone from Our Arms ... Forever in Our Hearts ...

My heart goes out to Officer Conrad's family, loved ones, The Marion County Sheriff's Office and community. The horrific news of the death of Officer Conrad brought me to tears. The death of Officer Conrad is such a tragedy he is so young and has been an Officer for such a short time my heart breaks. This young man is a true hero by all means. He made a choice at such a young age to dedicate his life to his community and country in such turbulent times when it may not be the popular choice. God Bless this true hero you will NEVER be forgotten. May your family and friends know a family in Northern California mourns with you and salutes you.

TO THE FAMILY, FRIENDS AND COLLEAGUES OF MARION COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE, CORRECTIONAL OFFICER ADAM CONRAD.
My heart is filled with great sadness at learning of the lost of your loved one and fellow Correctional Officer.
We in the law enforcement community are a family, although our uniforms may be a different style and vary in color, a badge, shield or star may be pinned upon our chest.
Our areas of enforcement may vary but our goals are the same, to serve and protect our communities. We consist of many different agencies from across the nation, for we are: Municipal Police Officers, Sheriff's Deputies, State Police Investigators, State Highway Patrol Troopers, Conservation Police Officers, College Campus Police Officers, Correctional Officers and Federal Agents just to name a few.
We patrol small towns, large cities, college campuses, county roads, state highways, state prisons, county jails, state parks and the United States Borders.
Whether active duty or retired, we are one family, a Law Enforcement Family, the thin blue line of protectors brothers and sisters bonded together by HONOR, SERVICE and PRIDE.
Daily we honor our fallen brothers and sisters never forgetting their sacrifice and the sacrifice of their families.
Daily our position is clear that we will Serve and Protect our communities without faltering and with no hesitation.
Daily we show pride in our chosen profession LAW ENFORCEMENT, for we willingly walk the line of good over evil facing the unknown with courage keeping our trust and faith in GOD.
We know that evil roam these streets and at any moment in the course of performing our duties the ultimate sacrifice might be required of us in the service to our community, for Law Enforcement is not a job but a calling and only a few will make the decision to commit to that calling to serve for some will give all that they have.
BLUE LIVES MATTER - If we don't respond to that call for help, or investigate that suspicious subject, or stop for that stranded motorist, or rush to that call of shots fired then who will?
OFFICER CONRAD
You did not die in vain.
You sacrificed your life in the service to the citizens of Marion County in the State of Illinois with HONOR, PRIDE and DISTINCTION.
I'm proud to have worn the uniform of a law enforcement officer like you did.
I'm proud to have pinned the badge upon my chest like you did.
I'm proud to have served and protected my community as you did.
I'm proud to call you my Brother!
I commend you my fallen brother for making the ultimate sacrifice in the performance of your duty.
For you left us doing what you chose to do.
Performing a job you were trained to do.
Upholding the oath you swore to do.
Most importantly doing what you loved to do...........Serving
and Protecting your community with Honor and Pride making a better and safer place for us all.
FOR THOSE WHO FIGHT FOR IT, "LIFE HAS A FLAVOR THE PROTECTED WILL NEVER KNOW".
FINAL CALL
Officer Conrad status............Officer Conrad status.............
Officer Conrad status............Attention all Units.................
Marion County Sheriff's Office, Correctional Officer Adam Conrad having served the citizens of Marion County in the State of Illinois with HONOR, PRIDE and DISTINCTION is now 10-42.
Rest in Peace my fallen Brother, YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN!!!
