I wish the whole family strength in this difficult time, and what you carry in your heart cannot be forgotten.

At this moment, I would like to express my condolences, and as is well known through our Police / Sheriff / Ambulance / EMS decal scene, I am thinking of you with deep respect. R.I.P. buddy, and a final greeting from Berlin, Germany.
