Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

The true measure of a person
is not found in the
might of their arm,
their wealth
or their power –
it is found in the strength
of their character.

There is no greater testimony to
ones character, than ones
willingness to sacrifice all,
in the noble quest of
providing protection to all
whom they serve.

We met Agent David Christopher Maland at the VT border when returning from Quebec to MA this past summer. In the absence of any traffic we got a chance to talk for a while. We had our dog with us. This agent was unusually personable and kind, and he clearly loved dogs. Therefore, he was very memorable. A model for all border patrol agents. So very sad to recognize him in the photo when reading about his being killed on duty. A life can be taken so quickly, cruelly and senselessly. I never met a nicer border agent anywhere when reentering the country by car or at any airport.

What a shame..... Nearly a home town boy.... We just moved into the area a few years ago, but this loss hits home even more knowing David grew up in a community nearby. So many senseless acts against those who protect the rest of us. David will be remembered by many for his bravery & service. Rest in peace, brother. Unfortunately, there are many of your brothers already waiting and certainly more to come. Condolences to the service, co-workers, and especially family.
