I barely knew you but you had a huge impact on me. I followed you by working your unit for a couple years. The impact you had and still have on all officers who work there is too huge to put into words. you are continually missed.

Officer Lumley:

YOU are in our thoughts daily, as we do our duty to the State of Arizona. Your sacrifice inspires us all to "do it right."

Every day we put on that uniform we know that we may not return, but we go anyway. We squash our fears so others will not be afraid.

You will be missed Brent. For now, we'll all do uor best, and someday, we'll all be together again.

Officer Brent Lumley was a true hero. He was one of those officers who played jokes and always kept his partners on their toes. His badge number is #2266 and it will forever remain on the back of my badge. To those who knew him he will never be forgotten. For those who didn't know him you would have been a better person for having known him. Forever in our hearts.

The Officer's stood and faced God,
Which must always come to pass.
They hoped their shoes were shining.
Just as brightly as their brass.

"Step forward now, Officers.
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My church have you been true?"

The men squared their shoulders and
The Policeman spoke first
"No, Lord, I guess We ain't,
Because those of us who carry badges
can't always be a saint.

We've had to work most Sundays,
and at times our talk was rough,
and sometimes we've been violent,
Because the streets are tough.

The Corrections Officer then added,
But we never took a penny,
That wasn't ours to keep...
Though we worked a lot of overtime
When the bills got just too steep.

And we never passed a cry for help,
Though at times we shook with fear.
And sometimes, God forgive us,
We've wept unmanly tears.

Together they say,
We know We don't deserve a place
Among the people here.
They never wanted us around
Except to calm their fear.

If you've a place for us here, Lord,
It needn't be so grand.
We never expected or had too much,
But if you don't...We'll understand.

There was silence around the throne
Where the saints had often trod.
As the Officers waited quietly,
For the judgment of their God.

"Step forward now, Officers,
You've borne your burdens well.
Come walk a beat on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in hell."

Officer Lumley,

Your sacrifice was remembered today, rest in peace. I surely hope that those responsible for the cowardly attack on you have paid the ultimate price.
