I received this touching letter from a Euless resident. Thank you, Arisha.

Hello,

My name is Arisha Sumar. I am a current resident of Euless, TX. It was a day when I was driving home from Texas Woman’s University, and the moment I entered Euless, I saw all the cops speeding and going so fast. I knew it had to be something serious. When I got home, my mom informed me that it was an officer-involved shooting. When I heard that, I started to pray. I just want to let you know that even though I don’t know David Hofer personally, it aches my heart to see such a good man go after all he has done for everyone and made such a positive impact. His lost has made an impact on the whole community.

I attended the funeral in Bedford and I am truly sorry for your loss. It was eye-opening to see how many people were there. I sat with another Euless resident who also didn’t know David Hofer and it made a big impact on her as well. Up to this day, I am still in disbelief about what has happened in my town. What David did is heroic and he will never be forgotten. I just want to say I am truly sorry for your loss and I am always praying for you and your family.

I don’t expect a response but just want to you to know that you guys are appreciated in every way possible. Also, I placed this sticker on my car and I am absolutely proud of it.

Thank you and God bless you all.
