Know that many feel your pain. Since the day of my son's death, I have fallen to my knees first thing every morning and prayed for every law enforcement officer and their family. On my knees every morning - during that time I pray, “Lord, Be with all law enforcement officers. Keep them safe and free from harm. They are your soldiers on the front line of the battle against evil. If one should fall this day - wrap their family in your loving arms. Surround them with loving, caring people to comfort them. Ease their pain. Help them to mourn well. In Jesus' name, Amen

I have lifted you and your family to God every morning for 18 months. Feel those prayers. God is with you, feel His presence. He knows and will ease your pain.

As I read all of these messages, I am amazed at the support Tim's family is receiving. He was a great man -- a wonderful husband, father, and papa. He will be greatly missed by many. I know the family appreciates all the kind words and prayers from everyone. As a friend of the family, I say thanks for supporting them in this difficult time.

This is Tim's wife, I just want to say thank you for all of your kind words. They are greatly appreciated. He was a wonderful husband to me for 31 years and an awesome father to our 3 beautiful children. But I must say his pride and joy was our 2 beautiful granddaughter Brylea (8) and Adi (3). I love and miss him so much. Until we meet again.
