I heard the news today on Ace & TJ radio show in Charlotte, NC and wanted to say that I am saddened by this news and your whole family is in my prayers. I know God has received these men and has a special place for them. I hope that your family is honored by the fact that your husband, father, grandfather, etc unselfishly protected the public. I have family members in law enforcement and I know how hard it is to loose someone so quickly. God bless you and I will pray that God will grant you strength through these difficult times.
