Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Sarge, Just wanted to say you are very missed. Thanks for being the first person in my law enforcement career to extend a helping hand and kind of take me under your wing. It's been a wild ride and I wish you were here to see how far I've come, but I know you're always looking down from above. God Speed.

I pray that everyone can find peace in knowing that we will see this officer as well as many others again in Paradise soon. Until then, please accept my condolences.

Sgt. McCrystal,

On today, the 1st anniversary of your death I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for the citizens of the state of Georgia. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy. There is no tougher job in Law Enforcement than that of a Corrections Officer.

Sgt McCrystal was honored and remembered over 1140 miles the past two weeks(May 2016) while riding a bicycle with FLETC Long Riders and L.E.U. I was able to meet with his wonderful family at the Marine Corp Memorial, Arlington Cemetery. His lovely wife and two youngest children were given lots of hugs and the bracelet with Sgt McCrystals EOW information. The flag with his picture was also passed over to his wife and children. Two other officers also rode for Sgt McCrystal, so each survivor present had a bracelet and a flag. Such a moving event and I will never forget this family and may God protect them.

This crash has taken away much more than a man. A man who dedicated himself to his chosen profession and a family man, These can never be replaced except by him. Hope, love and faith will get us through to the next level in its due time.

My part is to ride my bicycle with L.E.U. (Law Enforcement United) in memory of Sergeant McCrystal. Bryan will never be forgotten as we ride this year from Jacksonville, FL to Washington, DC. I will be wearing a wrist band with Sgt. McCrystal's name to honor him each and everyday along the way. I hope to pass this wrist band to a family member in DC, where we will remember all our heroes who have gone before their time.

I never thought I'd see the face of someone I knew, and served with on this site. The reality of this is stark. You were a great Sergeant, and a great friend. Miss ya Mac. -"Lil Hagist"
