I know in my heart that Sean saved many MIT community lives with his quick response and commitment to safety. Sean and the MIT Police kept our children safe and as a parent of a 2015 MIT student I am extremely grateful! As I sit here typing this, I can’t stop the tears. I am truly sorry for your loss. Sean will be greatly missed and never forgotten.

My deepest condolences to Andy, Jenn, and the rest of Sean's family, the MIT Police, and Boston as a whole. I am proud that I actually got to know him. He was fun and selfless. Thanks to you, Sean, for backing me up in the streets of the Belize ghetto. Thanks for getting me drunk when I came to visit in Boston. Thanks for driving us back to our hotel when you didn't have to and it was 15 miles out of your way. Thanks for everything. You will be missed.

My thoughts and prayers are with the family of Officer Collier and for the officers of the MIT Police Department. From reading the news stories, the MIT website and from all the postings, it is very obvious that Officer Collier served with distinction and honor. He truly represented what campus law enforcement is all about.

To the family, friends and brothers and sisters in law enforcement, my family and I send our deepest condolences. No words and or actions can remove the pain and loss you have experienced, however, there is someone who can help you in your time of sorrow and loss. I pray that the one and only living God will send his comforter, the Holy Spirit, to help you during this time and that you may encounter the love of Jesus in a new and powerful way.

We live in a fallen world and darkness surrounds us, but the light and love of Jesus will never fail anyone who calls on his name.

I pray for peace and blessings for you all.

Thank you so much for your service. My dad was James Mahoney, who had been Deputy-Chief of MIT police before he retired in the 90's. He loved all the men and women of MIT PD, and so do I. They all took care of me and my classmates when I attended MIT. I know how dedicated and brave the police are. Although he did not meet Sean, I am sure dad would have been so proud of him. He represented the department honorably. Perhaps he has met dad in heaven, and they are exchanging stories about the 'Tute.

Prayers and blessings to Sean's family and the MIT community. You are all in my heart,
