Reflections for Sergeant Marlene Roberta Rittmanic

Sergeant Rittmanic was exactly the type of brave, compassionate person policing needs. My condolences to Sergeant Rittmanic’s family, her partners and coworkers. I am heartbroken for the loss of such an exemplary person, officer, and citizen.

I feel how weak and fruitless must be any word of mine which should attempt to beguile you from the grief of a loss so overwhelming. But I cannot refrain from tendering you the consolation that may be found in the thanks of the Republic they died to save. I pray that our Heavenly Father may assuage the anguish of your bereavement, and leave you only the cherished memory of the loved and lost, and the solemn pride that must be yours to have laid so costly a sacrifice upon the altar of freedom.

Yours, very sincerely and respectfully,

Abraham Lincoln
