Officer Kelly you are a hero to every officer still here on earth. What a tragic end to your honorable life of service and sacrifice. We all talked about you guys in roll call the past two days and feel like we have lost brothers. May you rest in peace and may your family find comfort in our law enforcement family. God speed.

Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil.
May God rebuke him, we humbly pray; and do Thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host by the Divine Power of God cast into hell, satan and all the evil spirits, who roam throughout the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.
God Bless & Rest In Peace.

This man knew the grave danger he would face when he went in to try to rescue his two Brothers but he still went! He was the definition of a real Hero, Great American, Sheep Dog.......NO GREATER LOVE!!!!!! This country needs more like Officer Eric Kelly. You can find some of them just about every Friday in America marching into a police academy or trooper school graduation or on the parade decks at places like Paris Island S.C., Fort Benning Ga. graduating from boot camp or basic training. Thank God they still do it on just about every Friday in America because we sure do need them!!!! God bless them and the family of Officer Eric Kelly.

My heart goes out to the family of Officer Kelly during this time of loss and sorrow. It was 14 years ago today that my husband died in the line of duty. My heart also goes out to all of the men and women of the Pittsburgh Police Department. To loose one officer is difficult enough to deal with, but to loose three in one day seems almost unbearable. For the family and officers, please know that there is a community across the nation wrapping its arms around you with love and compassion and that community will be there for the months and years to come.
