Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Today, as I was writing about Sean, as I often do, I looked at his picture. I called him names like I always did and told him I loved him!
I miss him, his calls, his texts, and his jokes. I am proud of Sean because he accomplished everything that he set out to do! I am proud of Sean because he made a difference in everyone's life that he touched!
Heaven gained an angel in our loss and now, I am sure that he is someone's guardian angel!
Rest peacefully my friend until Valhalla, I shall see you again!

It’s been almost one year since you left us to go home to Jesus Christ. I hope you know how much you are missed. We will never forget you and the humor and friendship you brought to all of us. Until we meet again.

Heavenly Father, You are Compassionate and Merciful. None of America’s Peace Officers leave home without the fear of not returning at the end of their watch. It is a fear that is lived daily. Unfortunately, the worst does sometimes come to pass, and lives are left shattered. Lord God, bless and keep the hearts and souls of those who have lost loved ones in the line of duty. Wipe away the tears from their eyes. Soothe their pain and bind up their emotional wounds through the wounds of Your beloved Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. In His name, I pray. Amen.

“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons [children] of God.” [Matthew 5:9 ESV]

“And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” Then I said, “Here am I! Send me.” [Isaiah 6:8 ESV]

Sean was my best friend and we got each other through a lot of hard times and his death has affected me deeply. I am unable to just pick up the phone and call him and we used to talk every day. I will carry on and strive to be the best I can be. Sean will forever be missed and loved by those of us that knew him. Rest easy brother we will take it from here.
