View Full Version : Lets pray for a hero



07-18-2008, 11:53 AM
I know cops ***** and complain about stupid things. Why dont we put the complaining and interdepartmental fighting to rest and mourn the loss of a hero. Pray for the family and lets look out for each other. Police are hated enough by public and we are out own worst emenies when we do this. Sorry for the loss of your officer as he is a hero is my eyes. Please stay safe out there.

My condolences to the officer's family and your department. The loss of any officer is a loss not only to his fellow brethren but to society as well. Be safe and take care of one another.

To Ofc. A. Widen's family, my prayers go out to you and the FMPD family
as well. Know that your loved one, our brother is with the Lord now. His patrol here is done although he'll always be with you in spirit. When you think of him know that the Lord has a special job for him and I wouldn't be surprised if his new assignment is to watch over you all. I didn't know Ofc. A. Widen, but he is my brother in Blue forever. And to his wife and children, I know he must have loved you oh so very much. I know he is a hero, and served his community with honor and dignity. May God Bless you and may his memories always be sweet and bring you comfort.

Rest in Peace Brother
From a Sister in the South we love you

Today was a sad day. I never met you and never had the pleasure to work with you, I'm sure you were a great man. My heart goes out to you and your family. As one in law enforcement we put on these uniforms and go to work everyday knowing the worst could happen. You are a hero.

As often as you see this site being used to complain and bash each other senselessly and something like this happens and reminds us that beyond all the bullcrap we put up each day how quickly it can end. We should realize that when it comes down to it we are all we got.

My family's prayers are with you, your family and those you worked closely with especially your shift that was there to witness this first hand.


Thanks to those who took this dirtbag out so he can't hurt any of us again.

God bless

Our thoughts and prayers are with each and everyone of you. As a local Trooper we feel like a part of your family also, and we can relate to your feelings. I also wanted to say THANKS and KUDOS to the "Fab Four," in my book you guys did us all a favor and you deserve some very special recognition, for the diligence and Valor that was exhibited, and for finishing the job that needed to be done, to at least give his family and the Law Enforcement Community some closure. To everyone at FMPD, and any other Law Enforcement Agency that might read this, Stay Safe and Stay the Course.

God's Speed!
