  21. Dear Chief and Mrs Lawson and family,

    I was saddened to hear the news of the passing of your dear son Craig.

    The police department is the heart of a community. The police protect us. We put our children to bed every night knowing that the police are out there and will be there when we need them. When a police officer is hurt, a part of all of us is hurt. And when a police officer passes away, a part of all of us passes away.

    Craig will always be a part of all of us.

    Thank you LPD for protecting us. The community stands with you and appreciates all you do.

    Please stay safe!

  22. Dearest Chief and Mrs. Lawson,

    Our prayers and thoughts are with you in this difficult time.

    We sincerely appreciate the extra level of devotion you’ve provided to our community for all these many years.

    May the almighty pay you in rekind and give you the necessary strength and comfort to get through this trying time.
