There are three defining persons that have willingly died for you. Jesus Christ, the US Soldier and the Law Enforcement Officer. Jesus died for your eternal security. The Soldier died for your national security. The LEO died for your personal security. As Jesus now lives, so, too, shall these two other saviors. Rest In Peace .

Our thoughts and prayers to his fellow officers, family and friends. Words are small comfort, and time does not heal nearly as fast as we would like it to. We lost Officer Trey Hutchison almost three years ago under the same circumstances.

Josh,
Lil brother, I don't know where to begin. You were so young. I remember speaking with you minutes after you found out that you passed your POST exam at the academy. You were so excited. I just saw you the other day at the motorpool. You were so happy that you finally got your police car. I had to laugh when you told me about how many miles it had on it, but you were sill so happy that you finally got it.
Josh, you made the ultimate sacrifice lil brother, you're a true hero. I'm going to miss you bro. Josh, we not going to forget about you. Just watch over all of us up there.
