Brenton family statement on slain Lakewood officers

The family of slain Seattle Police Officer Timothy Brenton issued a statement this afternoon in support of the families of the Lakewood officers killed on Sunday.

The family of slain Seattle Police Officer Timothy Brenton issued the following statement this afternoon in support of the families and colleagues of the four Lakewood officers killed on Sunday:

Our hearts ache for the families of Sgt. Mark Renninger, Officer Tina Griswold, Officer Ronald Owens and Officer Gregory Richards. We pray that they will be granted strength during this time of unbearable grief. Our thoughts are also with the officers of the Lakewood Police Department, who continue to provide public safety services to the citizens of Lakewood. Their families are painfully aware of the risks that are inherent in their loved ones' chosen profession.

We remain hopeful for the swift capture of the monster who robbed them of their husband, wife, father, mother, son and daughter.

Our family has been comforted by the citizens of Seattle, the Pacific Northwest and beyond who have offered their prayers and support over the past weeks. For this, we are thankful.

We will ask for one thing more. Please support the families of the Lakewood officers in the same way you helped us in the days and weeks after Tim's murder.

We have asked that the Brenton Family Assistance Fund be closed. Anyone wishing to provide any financial support should devote it to the Lakewood Police Independent Guild. They will ensure that this will be provided to the families of these fallen heroes.

Donations can be mailed to:

Lakewood Police Independent Guild

P.O. Box 99579

Lakewood, WA 98499

Donations can also be made on their Web site, www.lpig.us

We know that Tim has been joined by Mark, Tina, Ronald and Greg. We will forever hold their memory dear, honoring their love and sacrifice in service to us all.
