From what we've read in this guest book, that kindness ran in the family. Please know we are praying for you and hope the pain of...

To the Joseph Bergeron Family. I never met Joe Personally. I went to school with a cousin of his. What a tragic loss for your family. I will say a prayer for healing and gods grace upon you in this time.

Dear Family, friends and colleagues of Sgt. Bergeron,
I would like to send heartfelt sympathy for your loss. I didn't know him myself but live near Lake Phalen on the E. side of St. Paul. I hope you find comfort in knowing that you are in the thoughts and prayers of people all over and the community as a whole. I am consumed by deep sadness for all of you. May the lord God ease your pain and sorrow while you grieve. Our lord Jesus is always with you.
Thank you to the police...

Dear Family,
I do not know you but the loss of your husband and father struck me deeply. Several of my family members are police officers. The risks they take each day for others are unfathomable. I am sure he did not want to leave you and in his last moments his spirit was journeying to you. The entire community is holding you up in prayer as you grieve. "For I know well the plans I have for you, says the Lord, plans for your welfare and not for woe; plans to give you a future full...

To the Bergeron family and the Maplewood Police Department:
My office window has a spectacular view of the Cathedral and it was all I looked at Thursday morning. I did not have access to the audio of the services but just to look at the officers lined up on the steps and the grass and the streets surrounding the Cathedral was enough. My heart hurts just as it did five years ago with Sgt. Vick. Heaven is well-guarded now. God bless you.

Bergeron Family,
I was lucky enough to have attended firefighter school with Joe and Gail. My encounters with Joe were brief, but twenty years ago when I was a new EMT Joe unknowingly had a huge impact on my career (life).
As a paramedic Joe never once looked down his nose at the EMTs. Once on a call to a cardiac arrest I had to insert a breathing airway for the patient. Unfortunately the patient passed away. As a "rookie" I felt I did a poor job and was devastated....
