Scott has been laid to rest

It has been a long week and a half.  Scott's body arrived Wednesday morning, was available for viewing Thursday and the funeral was Friday.

 

I was going to put together a post or two to share about the funeral and grave-side services, but a local LEO's wife did too good of a job not to link to (the posts include a huge amount of pictures):

     Part 1: The Memorial Service

     Part 2: The Procession

     Part 3: The Final Resting Place

     Part 4: Celebrating the Other Hero

     (Thanks 5150wife!)

 

One thing I would like to add for Part 2 (The Procession):

The distance from the church to the cemetery is just over five (5) miles, and while there were crowds and crowds of people within the main area of town, there wasn't more than 100 feet between people on the outskirts of town, where they had to purposely drive to get there!  The outpouring of people to show support for to the family was awe inspiring!

About me

  • I'm Ron
  • From Oklahoma, United States
  • I am an ex-cop turned geek - which explains why I never have my back to the door and always keep one eye on the computer. I work for Oklahoma State University and am one of the primary "Go To" guys in the IT department (that is a couple of blog posts worth of info in itself). My official title is Manager of Special Projects, but that doesn't slow down the assignments given to me. At times, I feel like my title should be Manager of ODAA (Other Duties As Assigned)!
