Reflections for Trooper Todd Michael Larkins
Father God, You are always faithful and quick to show mercy. Our Bother-In-Blue, Trooper Todd Michael Larkins, of the Tennessee Highway Patrol, was suddenly and violently taken from us; Struck & Killed by a Tractor-Trailer while conducting a traffic stop. Come swiftly to his aid, have mercy on him, and comfort his family, friends, and comrades by the power and protection of the Cross. I ask this through the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ, and by His Authority, I pray. Amen.
Please find Encouragement, Comfort, Support, and Hope from God's Word:
“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.”
[Matthew 5:9 ESV];
"Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me." [Psalm 23:4 ESV];
"Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends."
[John 15:13 ESV];
"Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted." [Matthew 5:4 ESV];
"And he [Jesus] said to him, "Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in Paradise." [Luke 23:43 ESV], and;
"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life." [John 3:16 ESV].

I did not know Mike but I worked with his Dad on CSX railroad. Every time I see the sign reminding me to move over or if I see a vehicle on the side of the road I am reminded of the Larkins’ family. RIP Mike.

I have many Memories with Larkins he was my Corporal at the State Prison before he went to the Trooper academy. We would run the fence line getting him ready for the academy.

Bro,
I can't believe it's almost been 10 years. You made such an impact on my life, I think you would be proud of where I'm at these days. I think of you often and just wish I could here you check 10-8 one more time...
It's hard bro, truly hard.
Keep me safe from up there, I know you are watching out for the crew of the Mighty Third.
