It was a beautiful tribute to our fallen officers. We really respect all of Westerville’s officers. It will be wonderful to have a permanent memorial for them at the first responders park. The leaders in Westerville are very smart and sensitive to the needs of our United loving community. We will never forget.
So proud to be a part of this great city.. God Bless Westerville and all the officers that make it great.
God’s blessings for you and your family!I lived in Westerville since 1970,and am now retired in Centerburg.This whole thing has shook me to the core. Words can’t describe the feelings. Thank you so much for what you do! Westerville is a wonderful town to live. Prayers always!~~~
I still can not put my heart to rest I am still so sad for the families, the chief, the friends and our city of Westerville. IT didn’t have to be this way. They didn’t need to die this way. I am trying to get through this but I feel like it’s a part of my family and I lost 2 family members. That’s not something you get over in a week, a month or even a year. WE ARE WESTERVILLE STRONG. Praying and wishing I could do more.
Debbie I know exactly how you feel. We will mourn the loss of 2 of our Westerville Family for years to come!
You will always be true American hero’s god bless and prayers for the families and the city of Westerville! Be safe Stay Strong
My heart still breaks for all of the Westerville PD and their families. The outpouring of love and. Support from our town makes me proud to live in Westerville! May we always remember the greatest sacrifice given by Tony, Eric and their families. Praying for healing toward a new normal and memories of the way things once were. Love and hugs.
