Officer D.Villedrouin To Officer Eric Barker and his loved ones: Anonymous To those who loved Officer Barker, my heart goes to you all, especially to his fiancee. Know that you're not alone in this journey you walk. I lost my fiance in the line of duty January 2003 and my world was forever changed. Even as time as gone forward, and I've found many reasons and ways to smile, I still have not forgotten the man that he was. Dennis was a beautiful person and he forever has a part of my heart, just as I'm sure Eric will always be a part of yours.

Tommy Moody Jr. Officer Barker, I never got the honor to meet you but from what I have read and heard of you , you are a leader , the ideal father, son , and brother.........You are a true hero, and of course a perfect example of a proactive law enforcement official, a leader, and role model ...You will never be forgotten, It hurts me every time i think of losing you and Officer Bryant Jr...I don't cry as much now knowing that you are still protecting and patrolling the streets of Dekalb County in spirit ......forever. Tommy Moody Jr. Eric I speak for the fellow men and women who served with you at the Dekalb County Police Department-South Precinct-Evening Watch. Your sense of humor, strong values, inherent wisdom, dilligent work ethics, presence as a fellow officer and true friend will be deeply missed. Over the last four years that we have worked with you....you have shown us how to be a fair, respectful, and aggressive officer. More importantly you were a great friend who would give the shirt off your back to help others in need. Eric you lived a exemplary life and left behind a legacy that most would only dream of by your faith in God, commitment to your family and duties as a Police Officer and in the Armed Forces. You served well....may you rest in peace. M.P.O. A.E. Hardaway #2482 Eric, MPO M.O. Miller #2263 I still can't believe you're gone. You always made us laugh in the 66th academy. We hated to see you leave us for Afghanistan. Most of us cried. You still managed to crack a joke at your farewell and make us all laugh. You could find a way to make people laugh in just about any situation. The department lost a great officer, but we all lost an even greater person. DKPD Friend We will always remember Officer Eric Barker, and honor his name and his service. In his memory, we will never give up the fight against the vermin that infest our communities. But for those who brought down our brother, "The face of the LORD is against those who do evil, to cut off the memory of them from the earth." (Psalm 34:16) Deputy Jason O'Toole To the friends and family of Officer Barker I offer you my condolences. I'm sure Officer Barker was a great man, soldier and police officer. A rare breed amongst men to serve his country and then serve his community. I'm from Miami, FL where to many brothers in blue have fallen in recent months. Watch over all the soldiers and police officers from your place in Heaven. We'll keep up the good fight! Sgt. Brandon Bestard As a former Police officer facing daily danger, I know the type of man your Eric Barker was. A decent citizen duly appointed to serve his community. I'm disabled, though not from anything I faced during my Police service. Police Constable Retired "We Remember the Officers" Corporal Napleon Brewer
