Such a shame that a lifelong career of public service and safety has ended so soon. But, as I look at picture, I can't help to think that you did not die an unhappy young man.

Rest in Peace

On behalf of the Westerville, Ohio Division of Police, our thoughts and prayers are with the immediate family of Trooper David Cunniff and the extended law enforcement family of the New York State Police. Rest in Peace brother and watch over us.

I fight not for glory or fame, for they are momentary. I fight for those who can't. I fight for Justice. I fight for the oppressed and the down trodden. And if I should lose my life for these just causes, then I have no regrets, For I serve to protect the innocent. It matters not where or when, for evil knows no boundaries. Be it fire, flood, or the threat of tyranny, I will not flee. Justice is my weapon. Faith is my shield. Hope is my armor. Cry not at my passing, for it was my Honor to fight for you. Shed not tears of sorrow, But tears of joy, for now, I stand with God.

By Jon F. Hooper
