Sean Collier

Thank you for your service, you will never be forgotten. I never had the chance to meet you but I feel as though I have. My thoughts and prayers go out to your family, friends and the campus of M.I.T. May they find strength in the kind words that people have spoken about you after your death. Rest in Peace Office Collier your work here on Earth is done.

I didn't know Sean personally, but he touched my life. I learned recently that my dad was his pediatrician. As an MIT employee, I feel safe every day because of the MIT police who watch over the campus. It's a small world.

May Sean rest in peace, and may his memories remain a part of you always. We will certainly never forget all that he gave to us at MIT and in Boston.

May your young soul rest in peace knowing that you were a brave. Your noble actions saved so many students that horrible night. Your strength, and courage will not be forgotten. Thank you for your service!

This is a tragic loss. So young and sad. Condolences to his family and friends

My sincerest condolences to Sean's family, colleagues, and friends. Officers like Sean do so much to keep the members of MIT's community safe, happy, and healthy, and I have nothing but the deepest gratitude for what you do for us every day. Thank you so much.

To the family, friends and co-workers of Officer Sean Collier,

I'm a volunteer /part time police officer in New Jersey and have followed the tragic circumstances that happened in Boston and to Officer Collier. I'm also a 9/11 survivor. I stumbled into law enforcement at a late age and after 18 years, I can truly say that it was one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life. Until I became a cop, I never realized that there is a bond of brotherhood that exists in law enforcement but there is and to Sean: I am humbled, honored, and privileged to call you my brother in blue. As I continue in law enforcement, I will try to be the type of cop you were and serve my community with the same dedication and passion and honor you served yours.. .

Thank you so much for your service. I am honored to have been a student under your watch.

I'm sorry I didn't have the pleasure of knowing such a wonderful and kind person. A truly beautiful soul. My condolences to his family and friends for their loss. May you find peace.

My heart is heavy with the untimely demise of Seran Collier. My sincere condolences to his family, friends and colleagues. You will be missed but not forgotten by MIT family.

As a parent of a student with physical disabilities, there were many concerns for safety when my child enrolled at MIT. My heartfelt thanks to MIT police for all that they do to keep staff and students safe. MIT police have stepped in on more than one occasion when there was an issue with my child's motorized wheelchair. Your kindness and generosity will always be remembered and shared.

My condolences to the family, and to everyone in the MIT community. I'm an alum, living in Newfoundland. I was so sad to hear that someone at MIT was affected by the craziness in Boston. But also very moved to hear on the CBC that Sean Collier had been to Newfoundland, and loved Gros Morne, and that the MIT hiking club will be back in his memory. Please know that people are grieving for him from here as well.

My sincere condolences to Sean's family friends and co- workers,he is in the arms of Jesus.God bless his family----my prayers are with them

As a parent of an MIT student, I am grateful to Officer Collier for his service and so sad about him being taken so tragically. Words cannot express how sorry I am for your loss.
