Dear Colonel William W. Hitchins, III:

I hope this letter finds you well, though I understand it is an incredibly tough time for you and everyone connected to your department. I am writing to extend my heartfelt sympathy and deepest condolences for the loss of Trooper First Class Chase Winston Redner, a brave and dedicated professional.

The news of Trooper Winston’s death has deeply saddened me and my entire family. The sacrifice that he made while protecting and serving your community is a testament to the selfless and courageous nature of law enforcement officers like him. We can never truly comprehend the risks and challenges faced by those in law enforcement, and we are forever indebted to them for their unwavering commitment to keeping us safe.

Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with Trooper Winston’s family, friends, and colleagues during this immensely challenging time. Their loss is immeasurable, and we can only hope that the outpouring of support from the community can offer some comfort in these trying times.

In times like these, we must remember the positive impact Trooper Winston had on countless lives throughout his life and career. The memories of his dedication, kindness, and professionalism will remain etched in the hearts of those who had the privilege to know him.

To you, Colonel Hitchins, and the entire Georgia State Patrol, my family and I want to express our gratitude for the vital work you do each day, often in the face of danger and adversity. The sacrifice of your fallen colleague serves as a stark reminder of the dangers that come with your line of duty. Despite the risks, you continue to serve with integrity and unwavering commitment, and for that, we are immensely thankful.

Having served 44 years as a Law Enforcement Professional, my family stands with you during this time of mourning. Please do not hesitate to reach out if there is anything we can do to support you and your department during this difficult period.

May the memories of Trooper Winston be a source of strength and may his legacy inspire others to follow in his footsteps of honor and service. We will forever be indebted to the sacrifice he made to keep us safe.

They say that "Hero's Life Forever". It is engraved on the Memorial in Washington DC. It is something that I believe in all my heart. Trooper Chase Redner died a hero. He paid the ultimate sacrifice; and for that, America is saddened. May he live on and his life celebrated by the Georgia State Patrol.

To the family, friends and colleagues of Trooper Chase Redner, I extend my deepest sympathy for your loss. May you find comfort knowing Chase was welcomed with open arms. God has a very special place for peacekeepers. May God also provide you strength in the coming days, weeks, months and years.

God's Speed Chase!

Rest in Peace brother and watch over us. We will protect and serve from here on in your honor.

I fight not for glory or fame, for they are momentary. I fight for those who can't. I fight for Justice. I fight for the oppressed and the down trodden. And if I should lose my life for these just causes, then I have no regrets, For I serve to protect the innocent. It matters not where or when, for evil knows no boundaries. Be it fire, flood, or the threat of tyranny, I will not flee. Justice is my weapon. Faith is my shield. Hope is my armor. Cry not at my passing, for it was my Honor to fight for you. Shed not tears of sorrow, but tears of joy, for now, I stand with God.

What a tragedy… we are never safe in this profession. We have to find the way to stop all these senseless accidents from happening. More enforcement to distracting driving and more education on MOVE OVER LAW. None of these will bring Trooper Redner back but maybe will be a small step helping drivers understand the danger associated with being distracted, speeding and careless driving. Rest in peace Trooper Redner.
