I just can't stop thinking about how terrifying it must have been for Officer McNew in those final moments. The courage he showed trying to help a stranger, even while off-duty, really speaks volumes about his character. I can't imagine what his wife and son are going through after experiencing such loss already with Elizabeth. The fact that Liam is finding some comfort in music is heartwarming—it's incredible how much healing power music can have. It's as if he's carrying his father's legacy of giving back to the community in his own way now. The community's response, with the procession and the flyover, really shows how much Brad meant to everyone. It's such a poignant reminder of the bravery and selflessness that so many in law enforcement exhibit, but also of the personal sacrifices that come with it. My thoughts are with the McNew family and everyone who loved him.

I just heard about the memorial service for Officer Brad McNew, and it seems like it was a powerful tribute to his life and service. The 21-gun salute and the flyover were such fitting honors for someone who dedicated so much of his life to serving others. I can't even begin to imagine the pain his wife Elda and their son Liam must be feeling, especially after already suffering the loss of Elizabeth. It’s incredible how Liam is finding some peace through his music in the marching band. It’s tragic to lose such a profound hero who courageously acted out of uniform to help others. My heart goes out to his family, friends, and all those who knew him. Seeing the community stand together to honor his memory shows how deeply he was respected and loved. If anyone attended the memorial, how was the atmosphere?
