Its really hard to see this, but im really glad you guys posted him up here. He was a good guy, and I had the pleasure of training with him in the academy. Had a lot of heart, and can't believe he had to go like this.
Thanks..

Baxter, we will miss you up here in IT. I know we joked a lot that you were always up in the IT department for problems with your MDC, but how I wish you would've been up here more, because you were always a pleasure to work with because of your friendly spirit and attitude. God Bless you and your family. Rest in peace my friend.

All respect to these fallen officers, their agencies and families. I hope to one day never read another story about an officer killed in the line of duty, but I fear that day may never come.
Godspeed to you and your partner.
