From Adrienne Smith:
I received a card in the mail from your organization. My husband, Captain Reginald Smith, died in the line of duty on 1/7/22. He gave his heart, life, time and love to being a police officer. He let me know that it was a ministry for him. In so many ways was he able to spread the gospel and give hope to those who were lost in this world.
Recently I was told by someone who had changed their life that Reggie saved their own life and the lives of so many others. He believed in anyone and thought that the power of God and prayer, which he loved to do, could save a dying world. It’s hard to understand the ways of God sometimes but he knows whats best for me. We have 3 beautiful girls and a baby boy and my husband adored them so much.
My heart was filled with joy to open the card sent from a friend in Texas, signed by Tommie D. It feels so good to know that mu husband’s life and years of service has not gone forgotten and neither has his family. God has a way that is mighty sweet and he has shown it through you all and the work of this organization. Continue to be blessed in the goodness of the Lord and may he keep blessing the work of your hands. All my love, from my heart Adrienne Smith and children Riley, 4 Gianna, 3 Nylah, 2 and Rylan, 1

From Officer Jorge E. Alvarado:
This is Officer Jorge E. Alvarado, surviving brother of fallen Salinas Police Officer Jorge David Alvarado Jr. I received your postcard and wanted to thank you for keeping my brother, my Salinas PD family and The Alvarado family in your thoughts and prayers. It is great knowing that not only my family but also others who knew of my brother still remember him on the up and coming one year memorial anniversary of his tragic death. From the bottom of my heart thank you for your postcard. God Bless...
Please feel free to share our communication with the great and kind hearted volunteers at “Bridge to the Badge” as your card means the world, because it meant just that for me, to the survivors of our fallen Heroes. Extend my sincerest appreciation for keeping him alive through your memory of him. Thank you all for reminding me and reinforcing the Oath that we Officers swear to uphold, especially in these times where it seems that our law enforcement officers are under attack throughout our great nation. Any sacrifice is worth it when we have people like yourselves. Thank You.
"Thank you much for remembering my husband. Honoring him for his legacy is really a big honor for our family. May the good Lord protect and guide you always. We love you! Not forgetting my husband and my family means a lot to us."
