Words are so inadequate at a time like this! I am incredibly saddened by the events that led up to today. It takes a special person to serve as an officer and I am so thankful that the world was blessed with Officer Crouse and his family. My thoughts and prayers are with his family, not just now but in the months to come, and, if they can, take some comfort in the knowledge that they have a huge extended family to lean on!
