You, my Brother Warrior will not be forgotten.

We honor and respect all of the Fallen Warriors who have gone before us.

We ask you, Brother Warriors to guide us, protect us and pray for us.

You are the same age as my daughter. So sorry your short life ended
so violently. Another sad and tragic day for law enforcement. Your
death diminshes us all. Thank you for your selfless service and sacrifice.
Sorry you barely got to enjoy your career. It's amazing to me that
anyone would choose a law enforcement career considering all the evil
in the world. 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. My heart goes out to all those you loved and all those who loved
you. God bless.
