At the beginning of every shift, myself and the other officers on shift dedicate the day to the memory of a fallen officer.
Tonight, May 11, 2006 we dedicated the shift to the memory of Police Officer Michael Lee Edwards who died in the line of duty on this date 32 years ago.
When one law enforcement officer falls, we all stumble for a while, but we will carry on.
Officer Edwards’ sacrifice will never be forgotten.

Brother Edwards,
May the road rise up to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
And the rains fall soft upon your fields,
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.
Respectfully,
You’re Brothers in Blue

It was a terrible day when I came back from a day off and I found out you were killed. I still pray they catch the killer(s). You were a good cop and friend.

I was assigned this case in 1974. There is not a day I wonder about Mikes death. Maybe someday it will be solved. That is my prayer!

I never knew Mike personally, but felt like I did. I worked the Firearms Unit after his shooting & for years I ballisticly checked all guns that came into our custody in an attempt to match it to the murder bullet. Unfortunately, I never found the gun. BUT, hang in there Mike, we'll catch your killer one day....& he will pay for his sins.

The cowards who took you from us will be punished, if they haven't already perished under the sword of righteousness.
You left us so long ago but you are not forgotten, you are a hero and the good in you lives on in all of us who have fought and fight evil everyday.
