May the family, friends, department, fellow officers and community know that they have lost a fine LEO. It always hits hard to learn of any LEO's passing and especially hard when we lose one from my own native state of WV. Rest in peace, brother, knowing you served with honor and Harm's Hand cannot ever take away your honored memory from us.

“REMEMBER ME”
Law enforcement officers are, indeed, a special breed of people. Ask anyone on the street and they will tell you that they would not have our jobs for anything in the world. It takes something special to do what we do and at the same time be able to even contemplate retirement. We try to be optimists. Unfortunately, there are a few of us who will never make that date with retirement. By the very nature of our job, we are at risk everyday of losing our lives, either at the hand of some deranged individual or in some other situation that we, by virtue of our occupation, may be unable to avoid. Some people have recognized the hazardous duties we involve ourselves in, the risks we take, and the pride we take in accomplishing that job. There is National Law Enforcement Week, dedicated to us who gladly accept the responsibility of protecting the citizens in our respective jurisdictions. National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Day is dedicated to those who gave their lives in the line of duty. These are but two examples of remembrances specifically for law enforcement personnel. Remembrances that come but once a year. We should remind fellow officers of another type of remembrance, one that will last a lifetime. Sooner or later, a doctor will pronounce us dead. It is inevitable. Regardless of whatever happens, death is the end we will all have to face.

Everyday, before I click on the link to this page, I say, Please God, don't let there be a new face, another fallen officer, just the same as every day before. But again, another fellow brother has made the ultimate sacrifice. Seargent Michael Todd May, may you join the most high place the Lord has made for his officers, and may you keep watch over all of us down here, those that have served, and those that are still serving. We are all brothers. To the Monongalia County Sheriff's Department, and his many friends, deputies, and family there and at home, I offer my sincerest heartfelt condolences. I know the MCSD will carry on with heavy hearts, but with pride, integrity and professionalism, Just as Sergeant Michael Todd May would have. I feel your pain and sorrow Monongalia County Sheriff's Department. I'm so very sorry.
