Police Officer Alan Christopher Silver

Alan,

We have gone through another loss recently as you already know. Please welcome your newest brother, Chris Driver, to patrol the streets of heaven along side of you. What got me the most is the route taken for the procession went over your bridge and through the intersection of your tragedy. Even more, the burial is not far from where you are at RM Memorial Park. Standing there brought back so many memories that hurt more than I can explain. I could feel your presence there and I'm sure others could too that knew you. I can't tell you the numbers of tears that have fallen for this loss, both for you and for Chris. We honored you last year with a 10th anniversary. Paul, Jill, and I were there, we spoke to your family and a number of LEO supporters, over 200 people, all for you brother! I'm sorry that I haven't written to you sooner but just know that I think of you every time I walk through the halls of our department. We miss you so much and I will always hold you dear in my heart, thoughts, and prayers. Until we meet again brother, continue to watch over us from up above!
