Met deputy Gumm with my children. I always direct them to say thank you to all peace officers. Duputy Gumm took the time to speak with my sons and show them his car. I had met him on medical responses in Adams County and he was always kind and professional. Big loss for the community as a whole. Prayers to his family and Department.

A Prayer for Deputy Sheriff Heath Gumm:
Lord God, I boldly and humbly come before Your throne in sincere faithful and fervent prayer as we remember in this moment our Brother-in-Blue, Deputy Sheriff Heath Gumm, of the Adams County, Colorado Sheriff’s Office, who sacrificed his life in the Line-of-Duty. We recall with gratitude and respect all that he stood for in this life. Help us to live in the companionship of his spirit. May we be kind to the family, friends, and colleagues he loved; devoted to the county in which he served; and loyal to the causes which he championed in law enforcement. For Scripture says: God blesses those who work for peace for they will be called the children of God ; there is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for one’s friends; I [Jesus] assure you, today you will be with me in paradise, and; God blesses those who mourn, for they will be comforted. Thus, in our life, may Deputy Sheriff Heath Gumm live on, to our great comfort, to the betterment of Your creation, and to the furthering of Your most Holy Will. Amen.
