To both Deputies: we honor your sacrifice in the execution of performing your duties. We pray for your families as they grieve your loss; and as they move on in the aftermath. Moving on is difficult; and we pray the God would provide, protect, and comfort them, as they try to recover from your passing. Go rest high on that mountain, in the place he has prepared for you. Amen

To the family, friends and fellow Cobb County Officers of Deputy Sheriff Jonathan Randall Koleski and Deputy Sheriff Marshall Samuel Ervin, Jr. and all active law enforcement officers around the world.

My heart breaks for you as we mourn the tragic loss of these two brave heroes. Please know that their service and ultimate sacrifice in the performance of their duty is so greatly honored, valued, and appreciated. I am especially grateful for the law enforcement officers, like these two brave officers, who continued to suit up and go out on patrol during these unprecedented times where our honorable profession is so vilified and under attack like never before. Thank you for the incredibly important public service you continue to perform.

The fact is that we live in a world where evil exists in many forms. That evil constantly seeks to penetrate, infect, and corrupt the hearts and minds of vulnerable members of our communities. We as a society cannot exist without the incredibly brave men and women of law enforcement who protect us and repel evil from infecting and destroying our communities. They make up what is referred to as the “thin blue line” that protects ordered society from degrading into violent chaos.

Our brave law enforcement officers act to protect us and repel evil in so many important ways, including spending time helping a misguided youth to get back on the right track, or perhaps their mere uniformed presence on patrol may act as a deterrence preventing someone else from committing a crime. Then, too, our law enforcement officers protect us and repel evil by removing dangerous people from our society in executing search/arrest warrants, or to use deadly physical force to terminate an active shooter, or by running into the World Trade Center to rescue people on 9/11/2001.

The simple truth is that our society would immediately collapse without our law enforcement officers there to protect us and repel evil from our communities.

I mourn the great loss of these two fine officers and I am forever grateful for the continued honorable public service of our active members!
