Angie, I just wanted you to know that I have been thinking about you and your family. All of this was so senseless but yes we live in a world full of sin. This is just a step toward toward eternal life where there are no senseless acts, no sin, only happy joyous blessed times with those we love. I will continue to pray for all of you that God strengthens you during this trying time.

I attended the service for Officer Evans this afternoon, and though I did not know him, I learned today that he was a great man who loved his family, friends, and community of which he was proud to serve everyday- He along with Sgt Paudert are our heroes! May God be with both of the famiies and our community. Also I would just like to say that the boys in blue have truely demonstrated what 'BROTHERHOOD" is all about...my thanks go out to the WMPD for all that you do- and to all of the officers from all over who took time out of their day to come to wm to pay their respects to our fallen heroes- you all put your lives on the line, and for that i am most grateful!
-Officer Evans...you have left behind a town who loved you, but you have now entered into Beulah Land where your life will be eternal...i shall meet you there one day~

My heart goes out to the family and with my deepest sympathy.. He was a wonderful person and I am happy to have had the opportunity to serve with him at WMPD. He was a fine and dedicated officer. There was never a doubt, he was always watching your back. He spoke of his family often and liked to tell stories, especially about his brother,Jimmy. He will be deeply missed.
