MY SON! MY SON! MY SON! WORDS CAN NOT EXPRESS THE GREIVE OF A MOTHER WHOSE SON DIES BEFORE HER. I KNOW THAT YOU WATCH OVER BYRON AS YOU DID IN LIFE. THERE HAS NOT BEEN A DAY IN THE LAST THIRTY NINE YEARS- CONTINUING THROUGH THE LAST FIVE- THAT I HAVE NOT LOVED AND PRAYED FOR YOU! GO WITH GOD-UNTIL WE ARE TOGETHER AGAIN.

I LOVE YOU ALWAYS AND FOREVER! MOM

In loving memory of Goelet A.C. Beuf:
The following appears on the west wall of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, DC. May we read it with new understanding, that today's "battlefield" is the streets of our cities. Let us live so that our cherished officers have not died in vain.

"Fourscore and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation or any nation so conceived and so dedicated can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting-place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead who struggled here have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living rather to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us--that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion--that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain, that this nation under God shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth."
--Abraham Lincoln's Nov. 19, 1863, Dedication of the National Cemetery at Gettysburg

At the beginning of every shift I supervise, myself and the other officers on shift dedicate the day to the memory of a fallen officer.

Today, November 1, 2003 we dedicated the shift to the memory of P.O. Goelet Alessandro Carlo Beuf who died on this date four years ago.

When one law enforcement officer falls, we all stumble for a while, but we will carry on.

Officer Beuf's sacrifice will never be forgotten.

I pray for you today, Sir. You are not forgotten and neither are your family and fellow officers.

True Nobility

by Edgar Guest

Who does his task from day to day

and meets whatever comes his way,

believing God has willed it so,

has found real greatness here below.

Who guards his post, no matter where,

believing God must need him there,

although but lowly toil it be,

has risen to nobility.

For great and low there's but one test:

'Tis that each man shall do his best.

Who works with all the strength he can

shall never die in debt to man.

To Goelet and family...

You are all still in my thoughts and prayers and will always be. I hope all is getting gradually better for your wife and kids. I know you are keeping an eye out for them. While you are watching over them, please watch over Jason, too, in this time that he needs us. Thank you, again, for everything that you did in your short time as a wonderful Phoenix Police Officer. God Bless you, still, and your family, too.

Phoenix Police Department

It's been a year since you were taken from us, and not a day has gone by that you haven't been thought of.   Please continue to watch down on and keep the rest of your fellow Phoenix Police Officers safe.  You and your family are always in our hearts and minds

Beuf-

It's been a while since you left us.  The memories return everytime we see your picture at Cactus Park or at 620 W. We will always see you in the faces of your children.  You have left a legacy of love through your family.  You will not be forgotten.  Your family will never without our support.  Watch over us as we patrol and your children as they grow.

Phoenix Police Dept

We miss you, Goelet. You are in our thoughts every moment of every day. It has been months since you left us, but we still catch ourselves noting funny things to tell you or shopping with you in mind. We may never recover from losing you, and it seems that we will never get used to life without you because we miss you so very much: Your sense of humor, your talents and interests, and seeing you so happy with your wife and kids. Our hearts are broken but we are doing our best. Rest in Peace and we will all be together again someday. Until then, we love you and we'll see you in our dreams

Officer Beuf,

Again I find myself leaving a reflection for another Arizona peace officer who has fallen in the line of duty. Your death however is much more different for me than any other Arizona officer to fall in the line of duty. Yours was the first officer's funeral I have ever attended as a police officer myself. I hope you were able to see how many officers gathered to honor you. I thought of my own wife and child as I watched yours at the gravesite. Please watch over them, and all of us officers who will continue to serve in your absence. Rest in peace Officer in the kingdom of heaven, you have definately done your time here.

Officer Jody McInnis
Mesa Police Department, Az

I miss you honey!  Can't wait to see you again.

Our deepest heart-felt sympathy to Ofc Beuf's family and fellow Officer's at Phoenix P.D.
As God's word says in Nehemiah 4:14 "And I looked, and arose, and said to the nobles, to the leaders, and to the rest of the people," Don't be afraid of them. Remember the Lord, great and awsome and fight for your brothers, your sons, your daughters, your wifes, and your homes." Thank you from a grateful Nation for your dedication and sacrafice.

Ofc J.D.Sainz
Tucson Police Department

It saddens my heart yet again to have another officer killed in the line of duty. Your services were greatly appreciated by many, including those who didn't know you. Please watch down on our other valley police officers and keep them safe as they continue on with the tasks of doing their best to keep our streets as safe as they can. You are missed a great deal and will never be forgotten. Rest in Peace, Officer.

Yet another officer gone. Thank you for the short time you risked your life for the citizens of Phoenix. You will not be forgotten. Rest in Peace, Sir.

Not a day goes by that we don't think of you and miss you. You gave the best years of your life for your country and for your hometown. Rest in peace, dear friend, until we see you again.

Officer Beuf,
Today we remember your supreme sacrifice and know that not a day goes by that someone doesn't think of you. For all those that are still missing you, I ask our Heavenly Father to grant them peace and comfort. Thank you for caring enough to confront evil. You are remembered and appreciated.

You're always in our hearts.

It is a sad day for Phoenix, we lost another officer. The two of you, please look out for those of us left behind, especially those behind the badge and your family and friends who love you still.

YOU believed in faithfulness and giving of yourself for someone else. You believed in peace, love, honesty and trust. We still miss you like crazy every day.

"Where there's Faith, there's a voice calling, 'Keep walking. You're not alone any more.'

Where there's faith, there is a peace like a child sleeping, a hope everlasting in He, who is able to bear every burden, to heal every hurt in my heart.

It's a wonderful, powerful place, where there is Faith."

It has been two short years since we heard your strong laugh and watched you hold your family close. We loved your enthusiasm for life. You are sadly missed.

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

-by Colonel John McCrae
