THE THIN BLUE LINE

On February 16, 2020, Brett Byler was found to have a large 5.5 cm brain tumor which has grown and crossed the mid line of his brain.  He underwent surgery on February 20th to remove the majority of the tumor and follow-up with chemotherapy for the remainder of the tumor. 

This time was trying and difficult for the family and friends of the Byler family. His wife, Mariah, ran the household and raised their three young daughters (Brynlee, Barrett and Bellamy ages 6, 4, and 1). 

Officer Brett Byler was a former Marine, a police officer since 2009 with the Department of Defense, San Diego Police Department, and the Escondido Police Department. 

Brett’s employment was the only source of income for his family.
