Sean Collier

Thank you for your service and sacrifice Officier Collier. I hope you family finds peace during this terrible time.

My condolences to the Collier family. It is sad to see people lose their lives by such misguided acts, these days happening all over the world. Rest in peace.

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.

On behalf of the officers and staff of the Truman State University Police Department, we wish to express our deepest sympathy to the family, friends, MIT University and members of the MIT Police Department during this time of sorrow. God speed Officer Collier.

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 for your service, Officer Collier. I send my deepest condolence to your family and friends.

Heartfelt condolences to Sean Collier's family. I did not know Sean, but have seen his smiling face on campus. His presence is missed.

"Death is nothing at all.
I have only slipped away to the next room.
I am I and you are you.
Whatever we were to each other,
That, we still are.

Call me by my old familiar name.
Speak to me in the easy way
which you always used.
Put no difference into your tone.
Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow.

Laugh as we always laughed
at the little jokes we enjoyed together.
Play, smile, think of me. Pray for me.
Let my name be ever the household word
that it always was.
Let it be spoken without effect.
Without the trace of a shadow on it.

Life means all that it ever meant.
It is the same that it ever was.
There is absolute unbroken continuity.
Why should I be out of mind
because I am out of sight?

I am but waiting for you.
For an interval.
Somewhere. Very near.
Just around the corner.

All is well."
-Henry Scott Holland

We appreciate all you do, we will never forget you.

My deepest condolences to Officer Sean Collier's birth family, his law enforcement family, and to those in the MIT communnity who were fortunate enough to have known him personnally. How full of life and a great sense of duty, he was. Hearing about him, I feel very touched and extremely fortunate to have been under his protection. Thank you, Sean, for your all you have done for us, in life and in death. May we allow your beautiful spirit to guide us as we take on the challenges that lay ahead. Thank you and rest in peace.

Sean- Thank you for protecting our community. As I read about you, from those who knew you well, I know we truly lost an amazing human being and police officer. My heart is broken for all those trying to find peace, even for a moment. I thank you for all you've sacrificed while doing what you loved, what you believed in. I pray for your family, friends, MIT brothers & sisters, MIT community, and all who are grieving from the tragic, senseless incidents this past week. May God hold you in the palm of his hand.
