I hope that you rest easy. Even though your watch on earth has ended, continue to watch over your loved ones, they need you now more than ever. You were such a good man both on and off duty. I can't think of anyone that made a better officer, you were too much of a sweetheart to leave this world so soon.

So very sorry for the loss of this brave young man. He definitely gave the ultimate sacrifice. There is no safe place to be when you are an officer on duty or off. May God grant you peace and know he is in no pain.

The true measure of a person
is not found in the
might of their arm,
their wealth
or their power –
it is found in the strength
of their character.
There is no greater testimony to
ones character, than ones
willingness to sacrifice all,
in the noble quest of
providing protection to all
whom they serve.
