Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Two years has passed since you left us, not a day goes by that I don't think about the days we were windowed up late at night talking about our future and the big things we were going to do in law enforcement. You always had my back and made sure I went home safe to my family. I could not have asked for a better friend and mentor in life. Rest easy buddy and I can' t wait until we meet again!

Served with Gus in ‘04 in Iraq. Great guy, loved playing poker with him. Always quick with a joke and a smile, even when things got dicey.

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.

Lieutenant Gustafson, what many people never seem to grasp is that, not just the job, but the training for the job can be dangerous and tragically, many Officers have been injured or killed while training. Thank you for your service. So long as those who know and love you best keep you in their hearts and minds, you will never be truly gone from them.

God Bless you, Brother and may you forever Rest in Peace.
