Missing you so much today and always. I want the words to show how much you are loved, but there are none. Three simple words remain: I love you. Today and always. Watch over your brothers. They need an angel. Jenn Evans You shall always be remembered, loved, and missed by all. Anonymous "The Badge" Investigator David L Bell Sitting here at work on the ole' hoot shift, and got to thinking about you. Hard to believe we're fast approaching seven years.
Matt you have inspired me to become a law enforcement officer, I hope I can reach the level of excellence you achieved. You rasied the standards my friend. To this day you still encourage many people. Deputy John F. Oisten To the family and loved ones of Trooper Matthew Scott Evans and his fellow officers with the Oklahoma Higway Patrol
I was the one who witness the wreck. There was nothing I could do for Matt I:M so sorry.ME ans OCFD got Jeff out . Tonight at 3:06 will be very hard for me along with all of you. Please let Matt's mon dad and brother i'm thinking of them.I' moved to timberkake Northalina ans nost of a i'm thinging of jenniffer i.m so sorry.... chris gaydosik To me, it still seems like yesterday I was passing you in the halls on the way to classes. I remember when you used to wrestle in Jr. High and I was one of the matmaids. Your smile always lit up a room and your genuine care and concern, I'm glad to say...Served us well, even if your time to watch was brief. My ex-husband proudly serves on the Edmond Police Department, and though we divorced a few years before he joined, I knew the path that he would lead in life. I'd be lying if I said I didn't worry about him all the time, because he's never far from my mind. I never realized how much devotion it truly takes until this past year when I lost my brother in Iraq. I feel that it doesn't matter...Soldiers, EMT(Paramedics), Fire Fighters, Patrol Officers...YOU ALL SERVE US UNCONDITIONALLY...My gratitude to unrelenting devotion of valor. So, Matt, thanks for the laughs in school and for allowing me to pay my respects to you. I wish we had been better friends, but I will forever be greatful for being blessed with the time I had with you. You will always be loved, cherished, and missed. Keep Watch......Over The Innocent. God Bless You Matt. Shannon (Williams) Austill Matt,
Matt, I can't believe its been over five years now. I hope your wife is doing well. You'd never believe it, because I always said I'd never marry a cop, but 9 months after your death I married that California Highway Patrol officer and moved across the country. Of course I also said I never cry and I bawled my eyes out many times in that first week of your death. I think about you and officer Rominger every time I kiss him goodbye before work wondering if it will be the last time. Your funeral was the first law enforcement one I'd been to and I will never forget the impact you had on so many lives. Thanks for the laughs "rookie", and if you can, please watch over my hubby...(I finally found a keeper in the last place I would look! ;) M. Franks Wow! What a terribly tragedy. I was just browsing through the 'Today in History' and I came across Officer Evans' page. I would like to send my condolences to the family and friends. Five years ago today your lives were changed forever. Just know that Matt is always with you no matter what. You all are in my thoughts today. Take care of each other and celebrate his life. Tracie May god bless you and your family, as they get through this terrible time without you. Its so sad that something like this happens to someone who is protecting the people. May you, god and the other troopers who have passed continue to watch over us as well as your families. You will always be missed but never forgotten. Many prayers for you and your family. God Bless.
I hope the members of the community which Trooper Evans served truly appreciate his commitment and sacrifice to their safety. Every coworker and family member can be most proud to know his and Trooper Rominger's actions were a true testament of their character. I salute you for your bravery. May you rest in peace in a special place. May your bravery, commitment and sacrifice never be forgotten! My condolences to all of your family and coworkers. AC Trooper Matt my man, there's not a day that goes by that I don't think about you. I had you for 18 wks in the academy and supervised you when you graduated. It's really unfair that someone with so much potential and promise was taken away from us so soon. I have nothing but great memories of you. I remember the times of me riding with you and having to tell you to slow down because you were nervous your supervisor was riding with you. I would also tell you that I was riding with you as a partner, not a supervisor. I remember telling you to get rid of that dope smoking music you played. (Korn) I remember the look on your face after your first pursuit for which you did a pretty good job. Except for the minor dents to your unit. I remember having to make you come to my office and visit when you were in doing reports. You had one foot planted and the other pointed towards the door. I remember the pride on your face when we talked about Jenn. Brother, you would really be proud of her. She is a strong woman! She has endured and come through like a Trooper! Sometimes I don't know how, but she has. Your name sake, my son Evan just jumped in my lap and he says to tell Jesus hey for him. Your boss really misses you and just wanted to let you know that. 2Lt Russell Maples You helped me to commit to the endevour of being a Deputy. Deputy Owen Baker Matt, #1231 I am a police officer who recently attented a Highway Drug Interdiction program involving a member of the Oklahoma highway Patrol. I am sorry for your loss and send my condolesces from the Northeast. We are all Brothers no matter where we live in the great United States. Anonymous I am a police officer who recently attented a Highway Drug Interdiction program involving a member of the Oklahoma highway Patrol. I am sorry for your loss and send my condolesces from the Northeast. We are all Brothers no matter where we live in the great United States. Police officer What's Left Behind Krista Peterson A tribute to a truly worthy trooper and his family. May the Lord,our God, remind us of what a wonderful being Matt was and is. When the situations got hot, he never once shunned the task. Matt, or Acorn, would be right there to lend a hand. We knew each other only in passing for less than one year, but this young man, this good humored trooper, could always put a smile on my face, no matter the situation or how stressful it got. His laughter will be missed but his presence felt forever. In God's presence we will be reunited, and the smiles will be adorned again. Captain Christopher Adams to 895 1/2, i have a 1/2 at home and every time i leave home i tell her i will be back. i just wanted to let you know that matt is always with you. he lives on with all law enforcement officers, everyday. i think of matt and jeff all the time. to matt, while you're on patrol, give your wife a hug and let her know you are still thinking of her. thank you for your help on your eternal shift. god speed, brother Anonymous Matt was more than a cousin, he was my brother. He always looked after my sisters and I. I miss him every day. I am so proud of the man he grew to be. I will always be grateful that he was here for the time he was and that I was allowed to be part of it. Thanks to all who put their lives on the line every day. God Bless and keep you safe. Brandi Allen Day is done Patrolman Jason Riggs I NEVER KNEW MATT INDIVIDUALLY. I NEVER SAID HELLO TO HIM OR SHOOK HIS HAND IN MEETING. I DID KNOW HIM AS A BROTHER. A FELLOW BROWNSHIRT IS HOW I KNEW HIM..MY PARTNER WAS A LITTERMATE..I MOURNED HIS PASSING AS I DID OFFICER ROMINGER. TRP.GARY SANDERS I did not know Trooper Evans personally but I have trained with and worked around several of you troopers. I have been on calls that could have turned bad but fortunately metro area brown shirts monitoring our radio freq came to lend a hand. Its a great feeling to see You guys roll up.Thats what Matt was doing when he and Jeff died. He was going to assist another unit. God bless you and your family Matt. You are truly a hero and we will miss you. Sgt. Phil Paz
