My heart was very heavy hearing of the loss of Officer Tome. He and I had many cases together and he was a kind and fair man. My prayers go out to his family, friends and fellow officers. He will be sadly missed, never forgotten and eternally respected.

Dodi,

My deepest sympathies to you and your family. Dave was a great guy and wonderful father. It has been awhile since high school when we would see each other everyday... man that seems forever ago! Dave and I running track and you, Wendy and Teresa hanging out. I treasure those memories and seemingly carefree times.
I can in no way begin to understand your grief over the loss of a husband, but if there is anything I can do, please let me know.
May God bless you in these troubling days and I pray you find some peace and understanding out of this tragedy.

With my love & sympathy,

Chris Detwiler

I am so sorry for your loss,but IT IS AN HONOR to read such great words about him, that have been written. When I read these kind words I can't help but think he is so much better off than us. He is at home in JESUS Arms. May God bless your family and the department where he worked in a mighty way. GOD BLESS

Will the bagpipers play on my funeral day?
Will a sea of blue stretch down this long road?
As Harleys rumble by and choppers thunder overhead
It is the sweet sounds of the bagpipers that I hear instead.

All have come here to pay their respects.
To listen to the story of the brave act I did.
Worry not for me because I'll be all right.
It is my wife who needs comfort
Through these long nights--
Who will teach my boy what is to be a man
Who will be there to hold my little girl's hand.
It is my family that needs you now, for I am at rest.
Let it be known that I worked with the best.

I did not live the longest of lives, nor one of great wealth.
It is the sacrifice I made that put me high upon this shelf,
Treated as a pauper in life but as a king in death.
All I did was my job like so many before.
So when you turn to drink to comfort your way
Remember what it is that I have to say.

When you raise your glass in memory of my name
Know you are my brother for you would have done the same.
It is only we who run toward what others run from
Now I run no more, for my work is done.

As this wooden vessel carries my body through this sea of blue
Listen for the bagpipers and hear what they play
For it is their sweet music that carries my soul today.

To the family of a brother, I can never be more sorry for your loss. We lost a great Man, Father, Husband, and Officer that can and will never be replaced.

Weed,
The conversation we had on the way to 15 will always echo in the back of my mind as a reminder of what a true family man is.
