TFC Plank, we never met, but I was close to you on that night. I was only a few miles down the road, at B&B on my honeymoon, but something wasn't right. I could feel it. I was restless and afraid all night long. I blocked the door to our room. In the morning, that fear had passed but something was off. As I drove back up 13, I learned of this tragedy. On this anniversary, my wife and I returned to the area. I felt your presence again. I am so sorry you were taken away from your loved ones. You will be remembered as we will Never Forget The Brotherhood (NFTB)

I looked back and the last time I wrote on your wall was October 2006. One month later my career was ended by a violent assault on me. I survived with scars but I'm here writing, was given the opportunity to see my children grow, something you didn't get. My children had me in their life, something yours didn't. It's not right! You were a good, dedicated, professional Trooper. Thank you for being there on those calls as backup when my backup hadn't arrived. Your brother in LE always! Help keep watch over our brothers and sisters now. They need the extra watch!

Eddie worked for me as a Cadet when he first started with the MSP. I had retired when this happened. I had been to so many funerals, I couldn't bring myself to go. Have since wished that I had. Prayers for his wife and family

There's a special place in heaven for the Ed Plank's of the world; and a special place in hell for the cowards that took him away from his family...his personal family and the MSP!

Every time I walk out my door and see your house I remember that night I came home and you were washing your car. Told me I needed to come see Hayley as she was starting to walk. Heard you leave and go 10-41. Woke the next morning to the news and ran to the window. Convinced myself it wasn't you. Heard your name going to Snow Hill. Can't believe it has been nearly 19 years ago. Thoughts are with your family. Know they miss you every day.

Eddie Plank was such a great guy and deeply missed. I am a retired correctional officer from ECI and I remember the morning very well! What a shame for this sentence to have been changed. We miss you Eddie!

Ed was my shift partner when I first arrived at the Centreville Barrack in 1998. Ed had a good work ethic, was a good Trooper, and was always there when needed.

I think about Ed on this date every year. He was a good man and didn't deserve this. Such a tragedy..

I was only on the job 4 months when your end of watch came. I read about it and followed it all the way to the end. I want you and your family to know, not that we ever met, but you played a major role in where I am today. You inspired me to push myself as hard as I could to do the right thing. Thank You for that. I have family who retired and moved to Chincoteague VA. I pay my respects everytime I travel Rt 13. God speed brother.
