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.

Brandon it has been a true pleasure working along side you. You had a passion for the job, second to none.
You entered this career during a period when few would consider it & excelled in your duties.
You defined “peace officer”with your calm demeanor & caring disposition, but could turn it on when necessary.
I will frequently reflect on our times together & hold them near & dear to my heart.
We wi take it from here “Emu”!
