Feb. 7, 1936 MSP LODD: Maryland State Police Quartermaster Sergeant Wilbert V. Hunter died of exposure on 2/7/1936 http://kevindayhoff.blogspot.com/2017/02/feb-7-1936-msp-lodd-maryland-state.html

And Harford County Sheriff’s Deputies Patrick Dailey and Mark Logsdon were shot and killed on Feb. 10, 2016

Fortunately, throughout history, we have only lost one Maryland State Trooper in the month of February. On February 7th, we remember Maryland State Police Quartermaster Sergeant Wilbert V. Hunter who died of exposure on February 7, 1936. https://www.odmp.org/agency/2367-maryland-state-police-maryland

Heavenly Father. We ask for your healing graces for the friends, family, and colleagues of Harford County Sheriff’s Deputies Patrick Dailey and Mark Logsdon who were shot and killed last year on Feb. 10, 2016 – and Maryland State Police Quartermaster Sergeant Wilbert V. Hunter, who died of exposure on 2/7/1936. Amen.

I think of Sgt. Hunter when I complain about the cold and snow of February and how much I do not like the winter. It puts things in perspective.

According to the Officer Down Memorial Page, “Quartermaster Sergeant Hunter died of exposure after falling through ice covering Tangier Sound. He was part of an expedition taking 2,000 pounds of food to stranded residents on Tangier Island during a blizzard. Sergeant Hunter (was 30-yrs old and) had served with the Maryland State Police for just under 8 years.” http://www.odmp.org/officer/reflections/6867-quartermaster-sergeant-wilbert-v-hunter

Time never diminishes respect and Harford County Sheriff’s Deputies Dailey and Logsdon, and Maryland State Police Sgt. Hunter will always be honored and revered. May they Rest In Peace.

The Officer Down Memorial Page reports that throughout history, in the United States, on Feb. 7, 79 law enforcement officers died in the line of duty. https://www.odmp.org/search/this_day_in_history/february/7

We lift them up into your loving arms. Hold them their family, friends, and colleagues in your heart and our prayers.

In your boundless compassion, console us who still mourn. 

Remember our fallen servants. … Remember those who serve for our public safety and community.

We Pray and ask the Lord for the protection of our military personnel, law enforcement, firefighters and EMS personnel and their families. Keep us safe as we protect and serve. Amen ####
