The Tim Bowe Story

  A Trooper everyone loved at this agency - a great cop, great father, and a great friend.  He loved being a State Trooper.  Loved helping people.  Most importantly, he loved his family - his beautiful wife Denise and kids Alison, Alana, and Colin.  His friends called him Timmy.  He always showed everyone he came in contact with kindness and compassion.  While his primary responsibility was traffic safety when on patrol, he was always there to help back up other cops in his district if then needed help.  Including the night Chisago County Deputies were called to a shooting in June of 1997.  As usual, Tim was there to help and quick to volunteer to go in and help the victims and apprehend the shooter.  His actions, along with the others who responded, saved lives that night.  Unfortunately, this was a call he would not survive.  Tim's death left a family devastated, a department stunned, and an entire state in mourning.  He set the bar high, and his kindness will be forever remembered in the hearts and minds of all who had the pleasure of knowing him.       This episode is sponsored by our friends at Law Enforcement Labor Services, Inc.   Click here if you are interested learning how you can support this podcast and the National COPS organization: www.glow.fm/officerdownmemorialpodcast   WARNING - Strong language and violent content may be disturbing to some listeners.
