Reflections for Police Officer Bryan Scott Hurst
Hard to believe it has been 9 years since you were taken from us.. Miss you brother and think about your actions that day all the time.. I worked the streets a few weeks ago on 3rd shift and pulled onto the lot of the bank (now tire shop).. I ran thru my mind as I have numerous times how courages and heroic your actions were that morning.. God Bless you and everyone that is thinking about you today... Keep watch over all of us..#2057 forever....

My heart goes out to you as, eight years later, the legal system is still dealing with your loved one's murder. Bryan was very brave that day. We owe so much to professionals like him - every day. What a sweet photo of him with his/your daughter! I'm sure she knows her dad through your loving memories. My sincerest compassion goes out to you.

Happy Birthday Bryan. I know I did not know you, but you are always on my mind. I think of you often and know that you are angel. I've always heard an angel is someone you don't know, I believe it now! You are my angel!!!

I can't believe it's been 8 years. I remember everything that was said and done that morning but most of all I remember how you honored the oath you took to protect and serve and saved 8 lives that day. Not a day goes by that I don't think about you and the sacrifice you made. Thank you for your service to your country, the citizens of Columbus, Ohio and the employees of 5/3 bank. Gone but not forgotten
Love,
Angie

Brian - I took my son to watch Act of Valor recently at a theatre not to far from bank. He is 8 years old now and not much older than your baby. I've never really talked to him about what happened to us back on that horrible day becuase I've never known how you tell a child how important a man like you is to a world like this or why you had to do what you did. I made it through most of the movie and I got to the end where I just sat there and cried for a good twenty minutes holding my little boy and telling him what kind of man you were and how you saved his daddy just like the men in the film who were portraying you saved all those people. After that I took him to where you perfomed your final act of bravery and told him how a real hero llived and how important it is to live a life worth something and how he has someone to live up to in this life just like you. Rest in peace friend and I look forward to the day I can thank you face to face after this world fades.
