Sadness (a picture)

Lakewood police chief Bret Farrar walks past the caskets of four slain Lakewood police officers after speaking at their memorial service Tuesday, Dec. 8, 2009, at the Tacoma Dome in Tacoma, Wash. The memorial was just a week after the officers were gunned down in a coffee shop before the start of their shift, Nov. 29. Killed were Sgt. Mark Renninger, 39, and officers Ronald Owens, 37, Tina Griswold, 40, and Greg Richards, 42.

1. People cut down in the prime of their lives...I am so sad for them tonight.
It is a very somber day indeed.

My thoughts are with the families of these people...my god...

2. The turnout was/is enormous. I hope that helps the families and fellow officers
somewhat, just knowing how much everybody cares. :hug:
