PA State Trooper
A state trooper three months from retirement died Thursday when a tractor-trailer truck ran a stop sign at a rural Beaver County intersection and hit his cruiser, state police said.
Trooper Blake T. Coble, 47, a veteran who worked out of the Beaver County barracks where his wife is a dispatcher, died at a local hospital following the crash in South Beaver Township.
The truck driver, Gregory Golkosky, 47, of Mount Pleasant, was being questioned Thursday but had not been charged.
Investigating troopers said Mr. Golkosky was driving his empty flatbed rig south on Route 168 shortly after 10 a.m. Trooper Coble, who was on routine patrol, was driving east on Route 151.
Police said Mr. Golkosky ran the stop sign at the intersection and smashed into the driver's side of Trooper Coble's cruiser.

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.

Rest in peace brother.
Do not war for peace. If you must war, war for justice. For without justice there is no peace. -me

"It's a great life. You risk your skin catching killers and the juries turn them loose so they can come back and shoot at you again. If your honest , your poor your whole life. And , In the end , you wind up dying all alone on some dirty street. For what? For nothing. For a tin star."
Far from being a handicap to command, compassion is the measure of it. For unless one values the lives of his soldiers and is tormented by their ordeals , he is unfit to command.
