Tim,

You gave me food and shelter when I had none. You gave me friendship, guidance, and were always available for a friendly debate. I will always remember our times together and know that your sacrifice will be for the better good of the community. Your selflessness and generosity to those less fortunate will always be remember. Rest easy my friend, we will meet again.

At first the loss of a love one can't be comprehended, it tugs at your every being, you feel lost and disconnected, but God who is able to do anything and everything but fail, holds us, comforts us and strengthens us for the journey ahead. I wish we could ease the hurt and pain now, but your faith, your relationship with your Heavenly Father, your strong hold to Him can get you through this, factor in family, friends and community and you will grow and God will help you to heal, not forget, but heal and aid someone else through that same journey. May the peace of the true and living God cover you and your family, may you and your family smile again, even God wants the best, know that your love one will always be in your heart. Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.

Today I woke up seeing life through different eyes. Mrs. Warren because of your husband's effortless peace and love for his community I now see things more clearly. I thank God for sending such a peace keeper, who even though I never knew him has changed my life for the better. I will remember to love harder, be more patient, and continue to do what I know is right. Thank you Officer Warren for blessing me even in the wake of your home going.

No matter how many years pass it is always like a younger brother has passed away, when I hear of a police officer losing his or her life. They may be anonymous in name, but in spirit they are my beloved sibling.

Time will heal the wounds caused by the loss. Memory will clowd the circumstances. The faces and names will change...it is the hurt that never goes away and is reawakened each time I hear...an officer has died.

Go into the arms of God my "little brother". You are the by words of the Memphis Police Department--Courage, Knowledge asnd Integrity.

My heart is heavy today for Officer Timothy Felton Warren and his family. Such an unnecessary tragedy was this. May God give his family strength and comfort during their time of sorrow and grief and may He continue to be with them in the many days ahead as they continue to cope with their loss. My father retired as a captain on the Cleveland PD and I know the agony of worrying about a loved one who chose to serve and protect their community. God bless you all.

I hurt every time a police officer or retired police officer died. I had a cousin and a 2nd cousin to die that were retired police officers. Praying for the family and the police department. I saw 2 police cars go down a residential street this morning with lights flashing. I said a prayer for them. May you feel God's arms around you at this time.

We are so sorry for your tragic loss. Just wanted the family of this hero to know that my family thanks and is mourning your loss, This man was a hero everyday from what the closest ones to him have said. Just to hear how he went above and beyond to help others, if only we all could leave this world saving a life, I know it doesn't help the pain of losing him, but what a crown he must have waiting for him in heaven.

I thank God for you Officer Warren
