So Sorry for your Loss!

Officer Lee,

I'm so saddened to learn of your tragic loss. It angers me to think that you may not be dead, were it not for the irresponsible actions of our nations leaders. Rest in peace. I will pray for your wife and two children, as well as your friends, loved ones and colleagues.

“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God”. – Matthew 5:9

"When he shall die,
Take him and cut him out in little stars,
And he will make the face of heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with night
And pay no worship to the garish sun."

From 'Romeo and Juliet' by William Shakespeare

Officer David Lee will continue to shine from above...on his family and friends... as a star that twinkles on those he loved and cared about.

Sincere condolences and blessings to the Lee Family, his friends, the SLMPD, and all those whose lives he has touched.

Tragic..." Eternal rest grant unto him O Lord, and perpetual light shine upon him." Another American victim.

Bishop Edward Skiba

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.

Our words will never say the sorrow we feel. May our Lord surround this Wife and Children, Family, Fellow Officers, and Friends with comfort to ease minds and calm hearts in the days to come. Officer Lee walked a very thin Blue Line. He did it because he put himself between us and danger. We are Grateful. God Bless You All.
