I want to thank all those who have written reflections. You have all served to remind me that Mike was never alone out there. Mike has always had the love and support of his family but your comments highlight that those who stand on the line of duty have the respect and support of countless fellow officers, if only in spirit. I too will miss his heart, humor, and smile.

For Deputy Sheriff Michael Ray Schaefer:

Our duty as law officers brings us into many situations that involve strenuous physical activity. Despite the dedication to fitness a physical flaw in any of us can bring about sudden and unexpected consequences. We regret that our brother Mike would become a statistic during his service to the public.

We pray for Mike's family, friends, co-workers and all who care about him. May they be ready to reach-out to one another in the days to come.

I am proud to render Deputy Michael Schaefer a final salute.
