God will Bless you Detective Hobbs! We thank you for your courage, bravery and unwavering dedication while battling a violent and murderous evil cretin. You have done your family, your department and your citizens proud as your ultimate sacrifice has kept them all safe and secure!

May God Bless your family during this solemn and somber time as we thank them for allowing you to serve in a heroic capacity. May your act serve to all others in law enforcement, and for no other reason, that this is why we all chose/choose to wear the badge.
