Rest In Peace Officer Jonah Oswald. Your sacrifice will not be forgotten. You made the ultimate sacrifice to protect your fellow officers on scene as well as your community.

Sadly, the man that took your life, who also lost his, was my 2nd cousin. I make no excuses for him. He knew better. As I pray for your family, I ask that his family is also lifted up in prayer.

God Bless you, your family and your family in blue.

A police officer should be remembered not by how he died but by how he lived! A great man has gone to secure a safe path for the rest of us to follow. Thank you to you, your family, and the Fairway Police Department. Our country is a little less safe without you. Rest in Peace brother!
