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.

Sgt. Oliver was an amazing man of faith, a family man, and a man who set the example for all of us to follow. His captivating personality made it so easy to approach him and engage in conversation with him. This attribute help build relationships within the community he served through positive police contacts with the residents.
I am so thankful that I had the privilege and opportunity to know and work with Sgt. Oliver over the past 12 years. I will truly miss his smile, his laugh, day to day conversations and hearing him call out my nickname when he saw me.
A great man gone too soon. Rest easy Sarge, we will take it from here. I love you and I will miss you greatly.
