Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

OH, Dyke here in Ohio we grieve, we hurt and we dont understand. We missed you when u left to join another force. We let you go physically but mentally you were in all our hearts. I hope your last year was wonderful Dyke, you deserved a good year. Life was rough at times, but you always had an encouraging smile. I miss you Dyke, and I dont understand why you, why you are gone, but life goes on here on earth as we know it, but will never be the same.

Good bye Dyke for now...but I know u are in a better place.
Love me and the kids!

One 01-08-02 we lost our brother A.J. - Although I had only answered a few calls with Coursen, it was easy to see that he was a stand-up guy and a good cop. Our thoughts and prayers go out to A.J.'s and Dana's families. - BLESSED ARE THE PEACE MAKERS, FOR THEY ARE THE CHILDREN OF GOD...

Dyke was a great guy. Everyone liked him. He was always there to help. He will be missed by his friends & family.

I became Dykes' friend when we worked together at a car dealership in 1984. We went to the academy together in '87 in Ohio. His sense of humor helped me get through that tough four months. I will never forget the good times we shared and lessons we learned together as friends. My deep condolences go out to the Beaufort Sheriffs Office, the LaGrange Police Department in Ohio, and Dykes' family. Though his untimely and senseless death has torn at us, we will remain strong and committed as a Law Enforcement Family. Dyke will never be forgotten.

Please, accept in the name of my wife Aleidy and myself our deepest condolences in the death of Deputies Coursen and Tate of your Department. It is always a heartbreaking blow for us in Law Enforcement to learn of the death of a brother or sister in blue. May God grant both Deputies eternal rest as well as consolation to their families, friends and coworkers.
