I am also a retired State Trooper. I have been a part of several of these services. Two of my friends (at different times) were killed in the line of duty. One shot and the other auto accident. It, too, is something I will never forget. I sat here watching this, and a flood of memoirs overtook me. This was a very dignified event that you helped put together with your care and concern. The pain that the families and coworkers endure is hard to describe. I describe my events not for anyone's sympathy but to tell how this truly hurts and never leaves you. My friend who was shot had a 7-month-old daughter. I am now the father of that girl and am proud to carry on where he could not. Tears filled my eyes when I viewed this. Haunting memories. Thank you for showing this. As always, it was a spectacular job.
I’m sorry for your losses. I noticed during the video you injured your hand while setting up it up. You’re one special guy. Thank you for being who you are.
Craftsman, engineer, caregiver , but truly a man who cares about the work he does, the family and the the deceased he’s is ultimately the last one to care for. The ones you take care of are truly blessed!
Wow, just wow.. In my 62 years of life, I have never ever seen a funeral service set up, I love that care, attention to detail that you have shown.. Thank you 🙏
God Bless, the fella that does all the burials. It’s a lot of work from the start to the finish. I have watched many of these videos. And it is always done in excellent care.
Impressive. I had no idea how much effort was involved and how precise it all is. A job well done and much appreciated. A service we will all eventually need and be thankful for.
Amazing how Im watching this burial a burst of sunlight at at sunset comes thru my window. Much respect to the fallen officer and to you for what you do...
Your attention to detail is in all comittals provided by this man. Absolutely no difference. My entire life of committals of my family, all of them were interred by Wilbert. I send comfort to the family, friends, and everyone who grieve. May the memory be in their hearts forever. Onward 🌈 Amen
As I watch this video, I can't help but notice the time, attention, love, thoughtfulness, and detail this man is putting into preparing for this fallen officer's burial. But what strikes me even more is that this man is doing this for someone who is most likely a complete stranger to him. I don't think that he is putting this level of care into this burial just because it is for a fallen officer. I suspect this is how he treats every burial he takes part in because this is the type of man and human being that he is. Full of love, compassion, and complete care. It got me thinking that if each of us were more mindful and treated our fellow man woman and child with as much kindness, comfort, and care while they were alive whether they were a family member, a good friend, or a complete stranger, then this man would have less of these senseless burials to do throughout his life. Thank you sir for your commitment to ensuring that the loved ones that you are entrusted with interring are given the utmost level of respect and honor for you are the very last person to have contact with them before they are laid to their final rest. What an awesome honor and privilege that must be for you. THANK YOU!
Watched this wonderful video from Scotland …..the work and care this man takes for the final resting place of the fallen officer is truly amazing …..RIP Officer
Not sure how your video ended up on my recommended list but I'm glad it did. Never gave much thought to what goes into the preparation of the grave before the family shows up. I now have great respect for what you do. Your attention to detail and your respectful approach are impeccable. I was struck by your polishing the braces and blowing the dust out of the vault after peeling off the plastic. "Who does that?" I thought to myself. Who would've noticed? But you take pride in what you do and obviously this is not just a job to you but a vocation, to take care of those final details before a loved one is laid to rest. Thank you for making these videos.
It was an emotional video for me to watch. My nephew is a law enforcement police officer. Prayers for all our troops, fire, police, EMT and volunteers!
My son is a trooper. I almost couldn’t breathe watching this but I couldn’t stop myself. I’m sobbing while I’m typing this. But my son wanted to be in law enforcement even when he was a kid. I pray hard everyday that I never have to do this. And I pray everyday for the men and women who put their lives on the line to protect us. Thank you also for this video. It was beautifully done. My prayers to the family of this officer.
Your commitment to your profession is amazing, and especially to Cory’s family at the worst moment of their lives, I am so glad you shared this precious video with us “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.” Matthew 5:9 From Hiram GA thank you sir Philippines 4:13
My brother is a fire chief , my one nephew is a police officer and the youngest is a paramedic they both are also on the fire department ! I worry about them everyday❤🙏🏻🙏🏻 Sorry for the loss of this officer , thank you for your service , we will never forget you ❤🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
LODD services are some of the hardest to participate in, regardless of whether it is Law Enforcement, Fire Department, and Emergency Medical Service. As Honor Guard Commander, It has been my pleasure to work with several Wilbert Installers and Funeral Directors and many others, that all work together with the family to allow the tribute to the fallen to be memorable for them, and to the service brothers and sisters that are left to carry on. A special thank you to all the people in the Wilbert Vault family for making a beautiful product.
Very very professionally done vut after its all said and we all go hime with a little less than we came with. And now he sleeps alone he gas said his last goodnight i kove you. nothing will every make that alright. may GOD rest your soul AMEN
people like you don't get thanked enough for everything you do to help make a service look so beautiful so i want to thank you for everything you do i been to a lot of services both of my grandfathers who was in the United States armed forces had a beautiful graved side services and you guys are the ones who make it so beautiful
@@kristywebb3471 Every time I hear about a member of the Blue Family dying, especially the young ones, it makes my heart ache. Thank you for being on the Honor Guard. It means SO much to the family!
Ty for your perfectionism, eye for the tiniest of detail and all the love and comfort you bring thru your set ups. Sending comfort and healing your way for all involved.
I send my heart felt condolences to the family and colleagues of this Officer i have family members in the police service in Australia and can only imagine what the family and friends and colleagues are feeling at this time i pray that gods angels wrapped their wings round him and helped him into heaven where he is safe and peaceful and happy I bless all law enforcement officers and pray they are all safe and blessings to the obes that helped this officer to a blessed place god bless possum 🙏🙏🙏❤❤
You are a master at what you do. I hope all valutmen shiw the same respect as you do. I like the cross that you make in the bottom, it:s a little added touch.
Thank you for your service sir. I have been following your videos, you do a great job with everything in you. God bless you for all you do for others ❤❤❤❤
You put in a long day. I so admire your dedication, skill, and most of all, the dignity you give to all your commital services. I’m impressed by how you can paint and prepare the vault for each individual. God bless our law enforcement and first responders. Thank you for the work you do.
It's amazing that the feet of the cable rigger don't dent those boards in ( the wooden planks) . I had been with a friend of mine who set vaults, but never thought about it at the time.
Its always sad when a police officer firefighter or any first responder or military personnel that is killed when are he or she was doing was doing there job to the best of there ability my heart goes out to the family and to the police dept
I'm a retired police officer from LAPD Los Angeles Police Department, and I've lived full time in the Philippines since 2018! I'm truly grateful and honored to know the level of hard work, love, and respect you put into making sure this funeral for a fallen hero and brother in law enforcement! I lost 7 friends and fellow brothers from my academy class of 107 officers over the years. I worked as a police officer. Way too many of my friends and brothers were laid to rest from violent encounters in the job of being a police officer! Thank you so much for everything you do and did to honor this hero who gave his life in the service of his department, community, and country! 😊❤
Not trying to be disrespectful but just curious about this heroes final resting place. I saw the name and dates on that headstone, trying to figure out how this place was chosen. Thank you for the respect you show in all your videos.
I came to the comment section specifically looking for this exact question. It appears they dug where a grave from 1912 already was. I'm very curious as well.
interesting but what is the function of his metal container? Easier with excavation? With us that can be sometimes macabre, especially if someone died not so long ago.
I believe this is him. The funeral home name was in the tent and I pulled up recent obits from their website. Corey Steven Thompsen August 28, 1996 ~ October 18, 2024 28 Years Old He’d only been married for 3 1/2 months.

wish they would have shown the top, I wanted to see the art work
Question--the grave he was buried in was from 1913 at the latest. Why was it reused?
Most all simple , tiny income folks want to know about the botton line cost of all of this fine preperations ???
Not trying to be disrespectful but just curious about this heroes final resting place. I saw the name and dates on that headstone, trying to figure out how this place was chosen. Thank you for the respect you show in all your videos.
