David,
It's still hard to believe that you're gone. I wish I knew what to say. There were so many people at your Wake and Funeral-a lot of retired BPAs I hadn't seen in a long time as well as a lot of other guys who had transferred to other Sectors, the Academy or other Agencies and the Honor Guard and Bike Agents and everybody else there in uniform did an Awesome job honoring you. Thank you for all your years of service and sacrifice for our Country and to the Patrol. And to your Family and loved ones, please accept mine and Elsa's deepest sympathy.

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, loving family, friends, neighbors and caring people to comfort them. Ease their pain. Help them to mourn well. In Jesus' name and for Your Glory, Amen.”
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.
I have lifted you and your family to God every morning for over five years. I pray that David's life and death will bring glory to His name.
Feel those prayers. God is with you; He knows and will ease your pain.
Our faith helps us to see beyond the grave.
