So sorry for your loss Ohio State Highway Patrol. I travel through your state from Virginia to Michigan, my home, and have traded patches with you. I have not met a one who is not in the "brotherhood " I am so sorry for your loss of a great man, husband, father and coworker. We do this job because we love it, we know the risk. If it means anything at this time, of horrible loss, he was doing what he loved. Prayers to all of you and especially the family and close friends.
