Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

The true measure of a person
is not found in the
might of their arm,
their wealth
or their power –
it is found in the strength
of their character.

There is no greater testimony to
ones character, than ones
willingness to sacrifice all,
in the noble quest of
providing protection to all
whom they serve.

We know from the Holy Scriptures that Peace Officers have a sacred task to enforce the laws of the land to protect the innocent and punish the guilty:

"For the policeman [Peace Officer] does not frighten people who are doing right; but those doing evil will always fear him [her]. So, if you don't want to be afraid, keep the laws and you will get along well. The policeman [Peace Officer] is sent by God to help you. But if you are doing something wrong, of course you should be afraid, for he [she] will have you punished. He [She] is sent by God for that very purpose. Obey the laws, then, for two reasons: first, to keep from being punished, and second, just because you know you should." [Romans 13: 3-5 TLB]

"Somebody killed a policeman today,
And a part of America died.
A piece of our country he swore to protect
Will be buried with him at his side.
The suspect who shot him will stand up in court,
With counsel demanding his rights,
While a young widowed mother must work for her kids
And spend alone many long nights.
The beat that he walked was a battlefield, too,
Just as if he'd gone off to war.
Though the flag of our nation won't fly at half mast,
To his name they will add a gold star.
Yes, somebody killed a policeman today,
It happened in your town or mine.
While we slept in comfort behind our locked doors,
A cop put his life on the line.
Now, his ghost walks a beat on a dark city street,
And he stands at each new rookie's side.
He answered the call and gave us his all,
And a part of America died."

My family and I are truly sorry for your loss. My family also knows the pain and suffering to come with losing an officer. My grandfather was taken from us in 1975 as a patrolman here in Illinois. I never had a chance to meet him but my grandmother and aunts and uncles and my mother made sure we remember him everyday and remember His sacrifice. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family in this great time of need I pray that the Lord will anguish your pain and suffering at this time and leave you only the cherished memories of your loved one.

I had the pleasure of meeting Sgt. Krinkee not too long ago and found him to be a first class representative of the Police community here in Sheridan. As a Veteran and as a retired law enforcement agent myself I found him to be, well spoken and very considerate and willing to go that extra mile to help and serve the Sheridan community. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family, his fellow officers who serve this community on a daily bases.
