A fallen brother

I don't know if this is appropriate of not, but I feel that I need to honor my friend in some way. Deputy Robert Griffin was killed in the line of duty this morning. He lost control of his vehicle while responding to a call and struck two trees. He was a good man, a fine Deputy, and a friend. He will be missed greatly. To all of my Brothers in Blue across this nation, be safe and God be with you.

Was this the officer in Thomasville Georgia? If so, I learned of this through another Bainbridge LEO, Officer Hurst and a best friend of mine, who told me at lunch today.

I didnt ask if he had family. Prayers for anyone he left behind. Gods Speed to the officer.
