Condolence From: Gerry
Condolence: I'll remember you for all the great stuff you did as a police officer Josh, as far as the U.S. JustUs system...? Well that's a whole different animal altogether. My condolences to everybody who loved Josh and my disdain to those who deliberately hurt him the way they did...and they know exactly who they are.

Condolence From: Marilyn Koch
Condolence: You made me laugh so many times as I am the FOI guru and your writing had me sending messages to you to transcribe your own notes. I tried, I really did. You were so smart and polite always. You cancelled a paid duty because you didn’t want Loan to have to use a cardboard cutout of you in the family picture. I told you I would only change it if I got the family picture...and I did. Such a beautiful family. I hope you are at peace now. My thoughts and prayers are with Loan, your daughter and your family and your family in blue. Fly high, be at peace, you will be missed!
