Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Officer Williams,

I came to this website to let you know you are not forgotten and never will be! You actually shaped my career path at a time when I was lost and did not really know what I wanted in life. I was a 20 year old college student when I heard the news of your death and it broke my heart. I did not understand how such a good man could be taken by animals like. From that day forward I made it my goal to protect people and pursue a career in law enforcement.

Here I am today, a ten year veteran and detective.

I just found out about this site, and think that it a wonderful thing. It has been 13 years since Walter's death, and the boys & I miss him everyday. They have grown up knowing what kind of man their father was...good, kind and loving. Hopefully those traits will continue in each one of them. So far so good. They are good boys.
Thank you again for keeping Walter's memory alive.
Sinceely,

At the beginning of every shift I supervise, myself and the other officers on shift dedicate the day to the memory of a fallen officer.

Tonight, December 18, 2005 we dedicated the shift to the memory of Officer Walter T. Williams III who died in the line of duty on this date thirteen years ago.

When one law enforcement officer falls, we all stumble for a while, but we will carry on.

Officer Williams' sacrifice will never be forgotten.

I grew up in Waterbury. I remember Walter when I was a kid. He was the neighborhood paperboy. He always had a smile and a kind word. When I grew up and married, my husband was a cop who worked with Walter. Funny thing, Walter hadn't changed. He was now a cop, always with a smile, always with a kind word. "Bad guys" didn't like him though. He had no kind words for them. He dealt with them as an officer of the law is meant to deal with them. The creature who killed him knew that. Now he sits on death row. Although we can no longer see Walter smile nor hear his kind words he and his family are remembered always.

Such a sad ending to a life of sacrifice and service. Thinking of your
loved ones left behind today and wishing God's blessing and comfort on
all those who are still grieving your passing. Life is difficult at times
and the Lord Jesus wants to help carry our burdens. He gives us many
beautiful promises in His Word to help us through our valleys. I pray you
will feel His presence and know His peace. God bless!

No officer that gave his life should be without reflection……
