View all 328 ReflectionsAs the wife of a police officer, I would like to express my condolences. My husband serves in a neighboring city and attended the service of Officer Hofer. His picture still hangs on our refrigerator now two and a half years later. The more I think of taking it down, the more I feel we should never forget our fallen. He is my reminder to always be grateful for our servicemen and to support those in our family who continue to suffer the loss of loved ones. Our prayers are with you every night.
