Vicki was not only a comrade of mine, but a good friend. I can remember the times we spent together working details. We had many laughs. When you were tired and frustrated, I would always hug you until I got a smile. That smile will be missed. When I see you in heaven, I know you will be smiling, because you will be with God.

I will cherish your friendship forever!!

Dear Wax Family and Friends,

I am sorry to hear about your loss. Only a coward would shoot a police officer. I look forward to reading about the capture and justice being served on the coward. Please take some comfort in two verses from the Bible: " Blessed are they that mourn; for they shall be comforted." Matt. 5:4 and " Blessed are the peacemakers; for they shall be called the Children of God." Matt. 5:9. God Bless.
