Thoughts & prayers brother. I lived in North Carolina for a few months and all the Troopers there seemed nice. Your work here in this world is done. May both your blood family and law enforcement family know that we are much safer because of the life you lived and job you have done.


"Police Sacrifice"

While you sleep, we're there.

When you're sitting down to Thanksgiving dinner, or celebrating Christmas, we're there.

When its raining and cold, and you're glad to be in your home with your family, we're out there.

When it's your children's birthday, we're out there.

When it's our children's birthday, we're still out there.

You put on a suit and dress to go to work, we strap on a ballistic vest and a gun.

There's little room for error in your job, in ours there is none.

An error by you means a demotion, an error by us means a funeral.

When you tell your families "see you tonight" as you leave for work, you mean it. When we tell our family that, we pray we will.

At your job you strive to succeed, at our job we strive to survive.

In your job, one bad person is the talk of the office, in our job, one bad officer makes the news and suddenly were all bad.

In these headlines it's not what good we've done, but how much better it could have been done.

When you're scared you call us, when we're scared, we must carry on.

While you're eating a home cooked meal, we're having another hamburger.

While you're asleep with your spouse, ours sleep alone.

So the next time you're out with your family or friends, and you see a patrol car go by, remember the incredible sacrifice made by these officers every day.

Inside that car is a person that sacrifices his/her life, both professionally and personally Every day.

My heart breaks for your family & friends. In a few weeks it will have been 11 years since my first husband was killed in the line of duty wearing that same uniform. I will keep your family in my prayers. May God wrap his loving arms around them and carry them through the days ahead when they feel like they can't make it another day. You will never be forgotten Trooper.

May God bless you and your family for paying the ultimate sacrifice to the citizens of North Carolina. God already had selected you for a more important plan in Heaven and will comfort your immediate and extended families. Although we all may be confused, sad, and frustrated about what happened, it is all in God's hands and we must find comfort in this. Please accept my condolences. I will continue to keep everyone in my prayers and thoughts.
