Your loss pains us greatly. The tragic death of any officer is devastating for all those who serve and all those who love them.

To your children: I know nothing can ease your unbearable pain but stand tall and be proud, your dad is a hero who gave his life helping others and fighting to make the world a safer place.

To the Wife, Children and family of Detective Shield,
I was heartbroken to hear the news of the loss of your loved one. Although there are no words that can possibly comfort you now, please know that you are not alone and that Kieran will give you the strength to get through each difficult day. Although we will never understand why these special people are taken from us, you now have a guardian angel who will guide you every step of the way. He is a true hero and will never be forgotten.
With my deepest sympathy,
