Bruce St. Laurent Memoriam

The Jupiter police officer who was killed this evening during President Obama's motorcade has been identified as Bruce St. Laurent, a 20-year veteran of the department.

Laurent was on his motorcycle as part of the motorcade when he was struck about 5 p.m. by a white Ford F-150 pickup on the southbound entrance ramp at 45th Street. St. Laurent was taken to St. Mary's Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead, sheriff's spokeswoman Teri Barbera said.

The owner of the truck also was not immediately identified.

Police officers from Jupiter and police chiefs from West Palm Beach and Jupiter attended a news conference tonight at St. Mary's to discuss the incident.

Obama was in West Palm Beach Sunday afternoon for a campaign event at the Palm Beach County Convention Center. The president has been notified of the accident during the flight from Palm Beach International Airport to Washington, D.C., White House press Secretary Jay Carney said.

Coming up on 3 yrs and still not any easier without you. Im trying to better myself and let life go on, but I almost feel guilty for being happy without you here. Anytime something good happens your the first person I want to tell all about it. I try my best to take care of mama like you asked. She's got a hole that I just can't fill, but I'll never give up on her...ever. I miss your late night texts and jokes and your early morning sun rise pictures. I miss your laugh, your hugs, your smell and your encouraging words. You always pushed me to be better, I'm just sorry I never amounted to anything to be proud of. Thank you for being an amazing man for my son to look up to. There's not one day that goes by where he doesn't talk about you. He's got your big heart and I see so much of you in him. I know your watching us up there, but I really wish you were here, your missing so much...love you daddy

Hi baby, it's been a long and sad year. I miss you so much. I'm trying to keep my head up but it's been really hard lately. You were always there to make me smile when things were rough. I need one of your quick jokes and that awesome smile that came with it. I would give anything to be able to just lay next to you and snuggle. We had so many plans for old age together. I'm so lost without you. You were my rock! Anyway sorry for whining I just miss you so much. Thanks for the rainbows and the popcorn, makes me smile. Talk to you tonight. Soul mate's forever. Love and miss you baby.

We were saddened to hear of Officer Bruce St. Laurent's tragic passing. He was not only a father, husband, grandfather, and officer, he was a true hero. From playing Santa Claus, volunteering for so many causes such as Habitat For Humanity, and countless other charities, he served the community with grace and dignity. Our sincere and heartfelt condolences to his lovely wife, Brenda, and his four beautiful children. We never met Bruce, but feel we knew him for a long time. He was well loved and respected in the community, and will be dearly missed by all. Our condolences go out to his fellow policemen, employees, and his other family at the Jupiter Police Department. We have lost a fine gentleman, who will not be forgotten.Our thoughts and prayers to all of you. Rest in peace, dear Bruce, knowing that you were so loved and admired by everyone who had the fortunate honor of being involved in your life.

I am truly sorry for the family of Officer Bruce St. Laurent. I worked with him during my years as a police officer at the Jupiter Police Department. He was a good man, and was very helpful when I was a rookie learning the ropes. He helped me through my first serious traffic accident investigation and I remember his patience and eagerness to help me through it. He always had a good sense of humor as well. He never acted cocky or that he was to good for anyone. He was one of the good guys, truly. This is a loss to law enforcement and I know to others that were much closer to him. A final salute to an honorable man. - John Banister, former Jupiter Police Officer (2002-2007)

I only knew him from his post when he assisted the school crossing guard right in front of The Shores in Jupiter when my daughter who is now in college was just in grade school. And on occasion, "hiding" in the bushes to catch (and rightfully so!) speeders! For some reason, his accidntal death has weighed so heavily on my mind...I keep thinking , what is the lesson here, and it is one we all too often forget: life is precious. When we say "good bye" we never really know how long forever can be. My heart goes out to his family and fellow officers. I heard he was an amazing man- may you have peace knowing that he was chosen to remind us of an important lesson. If we can remember this- it is so easy to forget- his deaath will not have been in vain. My heart goes out to the family of the person driving the pickup truck. Who knows why these things happen. To make sense of these heartaches seems fruitless when the wound is so fresh. My prayers are with both families to find some closure to this. May God bless you all.

SO SORRY FOR YOUR LOST MAY GOD BE WITH YOU AND YOUR FAMILY...

Sandy Matkivich

September 13, 2012

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness;
here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you,
when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again;
you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night,
the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth,
and all those loving years
because you are only human,
they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers
unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain,
though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you
and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night...
"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street,
and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go...
from that body to be free,
remember you're not going...
you're coming here to me.

I have gone though the Guest Book for Officer St. Laurent and it only verifies one undeniable fact, that Bruce St. Laurent was a wonderful person. There are countless stories about him helping others and always with that smile. He was in the truest sense of the words a public servant. Bruce, I am shocked at your loss. Your dedication to your job and the community that you served is only part of the story. The other part is who you were as a man, one who we can all look up to. We have all lost a dear friend. His brothers and sisters in blue have lost a leader, a mentor, a trusted partner, a brother. We have lost a friend, one who you could rely on to be there to help in any situation. His children have lost their father who loved them dearly and wanted only to give them the best and to make them best they can be. Brenda has lost her companion and best friend on that terrible day when he didn't come home. In all that sorrow we can all be assured of one thing; that our lives, for each and every one who has known Bruce, is a better life having shared it with him. Thank you Bruce for being the wonderful person that you are. Let us share in the celebration of that life! Let us remember your smile. May God's peace shine on your family and may we all strive to be just a little better in life and a little more like you.

I have had the honor and privledge of knowing Bruce for the past 12 years as a fellow law enforcement officer. I can tell you that he was one of the finest officers I have ever known. He was great at his job and an asset to the people of his city. I will always remember his amazing sence of humor and the way he cared about everyone around him. He always talked about his family and how much they meant to him. He will be missed and never forgoten.

8 years ago, I had a knock on my door..it was Jupiter Police - why are they here I wondered? It was Bruce...he knew Dave and wanted to offer his condolences and give me his card/name/number if I ever needed anything. That really touched my heart coming from basically a stranger to me. He was truly a special person that I wish I had gotten the chance to know. My heart goes out to his family and friends..

Brenda & Todd Kroeber

September 11, 2012

Our heart's and prayers go out to the St. Laurent family. I first met Bruce when he started working at JPD those 20 years ago, while working dispatch. He was always kind, made you smile and always seem happy. Always had a good word to say about his fellow officers. My son knew him when he came into the video store where he was working and also when he worked for the Town. Take comfort in knowing that now you have a special guardian angel to watch over you, as he chose to watch over and protect the citizens of Jupiter. He was a great guy and officer and will be missed by everyone who knew him.

Do not stand at my grave and weep;
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there. I did not die.

May God cradle you in the palm of his hands and protect you like you have protected so many in your life here on earth.Thank you for all that you have given and sacrificed.
Rest in Peace.
