Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Trooper Green, I did not know you but after reading of your death I think of you every shift I work. You also motivate me to train harder in every aspect of my job.

Come take this badge off of me
I won't wear it any more
Now the sun is setting over me
And I feel like I'm knocking on heaven's door

Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door

Come put these guns in the ground
I can't shoot them any more
The sun is going down
And I believe I'm knocking on heaven's door

Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door

Come wipe these tears from my eyes
I can't shed them any more
The sun is setting in the western sky
People, I believe I must be knocking on heaven's door

Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Just like so many times before

Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Just like so many times before

Miss Nik so much - words can't describe.He is in my
thoughts always, more when the seasons change as now.
I think of times or events throughout his life that occured
this time of year. I cherish most the happy memories of childhood.

Nik, I can remember the day Gary called and told me about your death. I have carried a sadden heart for you and your family. Just to let you know Gary and the rest of us think about you all the time. This really hit home for me when I too lost a close friend and partner on 07/07/07. I will always remember and think about you. Heaven is a better place with you and Wes protecting it. God bless you and your family.

Since the loss of one of my best friends in July 07, I have visited this site almost daily, not for anyone in particular, just browsing. I am the son of a retired OHP trooper. My father was shot in 1969 (before I was born). When I decided to go into LE I researched my dads shooting, because he didn't talk about it much. It really brought tears to my eyes.

Over the years I have seen several troopers, police officer and Firefighters die both in the line of duty and not. It saddens me everytime I see a new name added to the list as I know what there family is going through.

You must remember God has a plan and his plan is GOLD. We can't see it because it is so good. Gos is preparing the streets of heaven for our arrival.

To the family, God Bless you in your times when you remember your Husband, you Son and most of all your father. Continue to be strong.

Well, as we prepare for another celebration in honor of our Lord and Saviour, your absence is noted.
Missing you does not just occur at holiday times, but when we are all together, that hole is apparent.
Missing you and loving you, always.

Mr. Green I had the pleasure of meeting you in Fredrick Oklahoma, you were a patron of my mom's resturant quite frequently. You're the one who made me pursue law enforcement as my career path, especially in specific reference to the OHP. You will be missed, and God bless.

Hey buddy, Man I truly miss you alot. I have never once forgot about you or what you stood for. I think about you alot and all the wonderful advice you gave me. Shortly after your death I was driving donw Highway 70 through Randlett and I had to stop and see you. It was very difficult and hard for me but I did come say hi and let you know that everything was going to be okay. I have lost a true friend and co worker in my heart and will never be able to fill that void again but I want you to know that I do this job every day with you in my mind and knowing that you are watching over me. Nik I miss you dearly and you will always have a place in my heart.

AS I HAVE READ THRU THESE REFLECTONS AND CAN SEE THAT SOME PEOPLE TRUELY KNEW NIKKY. I WAS A POLICE OFFICER IN GRANDFIELD WHEN NIKKY WAS STATIONED THERE WITH OHP. I HAVE OFTEN BEEN ASKED ABOUT NIKKY AND I'LL TELL ANYONE. I DON'T KNOW MANY OFFICERS THAT TRAIN OR PRACTICE NEAR AS MUCH AS NIKKY DID. HE WOULD GO SHOOT AS OFTEN AS HE COULD GET AMMO. I LEARNED MORE ABOUT OFFICER SAFETY FROM HIM THEN ANY ACADEMY I'VE BEEN THRU. THERE WAS NO MORE OF A PROFESSIONAL OFFICER THEN HIM. MOST DON'T BELIEVE IT BUT HE SHINED HIS BOOTS AND BRASS EVERDAY (LITTERALY). IF IT CAN HAPPEN TO HIM IT CAN HAPPEN TO ANYONE. HE WAS NO SLACKER.
TRAIN AND LEARN ALL YOU CAN, ITS NEVER ENOUGH. HE OFTEN TOLD ME THAT AND I'M SURE HE WOULD WANT ME TO PASS IT ON. AT HIS FUNERAL THEY STATED THAT GOD MUST HAVE NEEDED A TROOPER IN HEAVEN AND ALL I CAN SAY IS GOD GOT A GOOD ONE. I MISS NIK DAILY, BUT WHAT DID I LEARN? I LEARNED ABOUT HONESTY, PROFESSIONALISM, INTEGRITY, COURAGE, AND LOVE. HE WAS A WONDERFUL TEACHER AND I AM PROUD TO HAVE HAD HIM. WHEN MALONE DIES AND AND IF HE GOES TO HEAVEN, NIKKY WILL MEET HIM AT THE DOOR AND WELCOME HIM WITH OPEN ARMS. THATS JUST THE WAY NIKKY WAS.
TO NIK'S COWORKERS AND CLASS MATES. YALL LOST A GOOD ONE, JUST DON'T EVER FORGET HIM AND I'M SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS. ABOUT 2 YEARS BEFORE NIK'S DEATH, I BECAME A TEXAS STATE TROOPER AND FOLLOWED ALOT OF THE DREAMS THAT HE HELPED TO INSTILL IN MY MIND.
FOR THOSE THAT ARE INTERESTED AS MOST OF YOU ARE, I'M CURRENTLY STATIONED IN JACKSBORO WHERE LINDA AND THE GIRLS LIVE. WASN'T PLANNED, JUST HAPPENED. THEY ARE DOING GREAT. LINDA IS REMARRIED TO A WONDERFUL MAN WHO HAS THREE WONDERFUL KIDS OF HIS OWN. HE LOST HIS WIFE TO CANCER. THEY MET BY GOD'S GOOD DOING AND HAVE FORMED AN AWESOME FAMILY. I SEE THEM A COUPLE OF TIMES A WEEK. ALL IS WELL AND DOING FINE WITH THEM. I CAN ONLY IMAGINE NIK AND LINDA'S NEW HUSBAND'S WIFE STANDING IN HEAVEN AND SMILING AT THE FAMILY THEY CREATED. I KNOW THEY ARE PROUD.
NIK'S GOOD FRIEND AND TRAINING OFFICER, AND I WHERE FRIENDS BEFORE BUT SINCE HAVE BECOME VERY CLOSE. WE KEEP EACH OTHERS HEADS UP. I JUST FOUND THIS WEB PAGE AND A LITTLE EMBARRASED IT TOOK SO LONG. I WAS PROUD TO SEE THAT NIK'S REPRESENTED ON IT AND BY READING SOME OF THE ENTRIES HE'S NOT FORGOTTEN.

NIK,
You are my hero and now I will strive do all I can to live for Christ as you did. Life will never be the same with out you because you are irreplacable. Your death has imacted many lives because of the fact you impacted so many lives while you were here. I will forgive the man who killed you because that is what you would want, but I will never forget. Your family, friends, and fellow officers will do all we can to keep your legacy alive and live the christian lifestyle as best we can in the example you laid for us. God takes the best first, and we each know YOU were the best now we must all take a step back and search for the streghth to move on and live our lives for you and God. You continue to make a difference in everyones life, you set a high standard that we all try to reach. You inspired many people in law enforcement to try and set a standard as high as yours, however we each know you could never be replaced, You will never be forgotten. As we still look to you for guidence please watch over us, lead us, guide us, and protect us! You are My Guardian Angel.

To all other Oklahoma Highway Patrol Officers and any other Law Enforce Officers:
My prayers are with you. I have a new found respect for what you do. You are all my heroes wether I know you or not. May God bless you all. Thank you so much for the time and dedication you give to protect each of us, I know being a state trooper, county officer, or city police officer, is not just a job but a passion. It takes a certain kind of person to do the jobs you do, and you will be rewarded. Thank You for risking your live everyday to protect us all. I Know several county officer, highway patrolmen and city police officers and you each inspire me in many ways and each of you have a special place in my heart. Thanks to each of you guys for always being there for me when i needed you.
Love you all and Thank You again for all you time and dedication.

Nik Green was one of the kindest, most decent and honest persons to ever live on this earth. He was as good as they get as a trooper and a lawman. I miss Nik every day.....

The officer stood and faced his God,
Which must always come to pass.
He hoped his shoes were shinning,
Just as brightly as his brass.

"Step forward now, Officer,
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To my church have you been true?"

The officer squared his shoulder and said,
"No, lord I guess I aint,
Because those of us who carry badges
can't always be a saint.

I've had to work most Sundays,
And at times my talk was rough,
And sometimes I've been violent
Because the streets are tough.

But I never took a penny
That wasn't mine to keep..
Though I worked a lot of overtime,
when the bills got to steep.

And I never passed a cry for help
Though at times I shook with fear.
And sometimes, God forgive me,
I've wept an unmanly tear.

I know I don't deserve a place
among the people here.
They never wanted me around
except to calm their fear.

If you've a place for me here, Lord,
it needn't be so grand.
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don't...I'll understand.

There was silence all around the throne,
where the saints often trod.
As the officer waited quietly
for the judgment of his God.

"Step forward now, Officer.
You've borne your burdens well.
Come walk a beat on heaven's streets,
You've done your time in hell"


Rest in peace Brother,

Mrs. Green
I have been in law enforcement for 11 years in Oklahoma and I have seen the meth epidemic grow and grow. I am saddened by the way your husband was taken from you. I am a female officer weighing about 125 pounds 5ft 7in tall and I want you to know that I think of your husband every single time I get out of my patrol car and make contact with anyone for any reason. I will never forget and I will always be on guard. Keep fighting back. I am proud of what you are doing. Nik is missed.

September 26, 2006

Nik, we miss you. Everytime we go to work we hope and pray that everybody will go home safe. No one deserves to be taken like you were. I know that your family misses you. The last time we saw you and your family was when you came to visit Aunt Dean. It was nice to see you then. It was probably right before you became a Trooper. If I remember correctly, it was right before Uncle Bob passed away. He is probably up there with you and the two of you are probably going fishing. Say hi for us. If your family is reading this, I pray for you that each day will be made a little easier. God Bless, Robert.
