Rest In Peace my Brother. May God grant you eternal rest and may He also
look over your family and grant them peace now, in their most extreme
moment of sorrow.

A buddy of mine, who is a combat veteran of Iraq, said it best: "WTF... The guys survives Iraq and Afghanistan and dies in WI... RIP brother."
This is getting more and more insane by the day. Communities that would never dream of even one officer being shot are now seing multiple officer shootings that are becoming all too commonplace.
Rest in peace, brother.
