My heartfelt sympathies to the survivors of Kevin Sherwood's tragic loss. I worked with Kevin on Standardized Field Sobriety Training as instructors a couple ofyears ago. He was very good at training others to do what he was killed trying to accomplish; the detection of drunk drivers. May his spirit live on within his family and his agency.

Another sad and tragic day for law enforcement. Your death diminshes
us all. Thank you for your selfless service and sacrifice. It is a
long road to healing that lies ahead, but I know that our Lord and Savior
Jesus Christ will extend His mercy and comfort to all who reach out to
Him. There is none greater than He. We don't get to Heaven based on
what we do, but what He did for us!! AMEN! There is now a huge void
that cannot be filled. God be with all those who mourn and may His
promises lift all those with heavy hearts for many years to come.
