Dear Chief:
In life, you gave 40 years of service in keeping your promise to protect and defend people, culminating with your enormous sacrifice and unlimited bravery of 11 September 2001. Now, I keep my promise to you and the all the rest, in writing a reflection to show my love, respect and appreciation for your actions.
Our way of life, our very existence and the future of our children, was threatened that horrible day, and is still being threatened. But our enemies learned a very valuable lesson following their cowardly acts of violence: that American police officers are the last line of defense for the homeland, and their murdering ways will NEVER overcome the actions of officers such as you.
To live free, talk free, and pursue happiness, is not something that many people in the world today enjoy. We enjoy those wonderful things because of the large amounts of American blood that has been spilled over the years, both here and abroad. Whether it is the military or our law enforcement, here or in foreign lands, what you did that day is a reminder to ALL Americans, that these freedoms we enjoy come at a very high price.
Most citizens that are not police officers cannot understand how you could have been in the law enforcement business for so many years.That's why we are part of the thin blue line, because we can all understand the enormous joy of saving someone, or locating a missing child, or arresting a criminal. These events bring a smile to all our faces, and I am certain that you are smiling now, from a better place, knowing you helped to save so many innocent people.
As one of America's Finest, rest easy now knowing we carry on in your name and spirit. When you, and every law enforcement officer makes the ultimate sacrifice, a piece of each of dies with you. And sadly, a piece of America dies with you also. But America, and Americans, shall live on, blessed by the love of God, and by the professionalism and dedication of police officers such as yourself.
As you patrol the streets of Heaven, may God keep you close, ease the suffering of your family, and may He continue to bless America. Amen

When through one man a little more love and goodness, a little more light and truth come into the world, then that man's life has had meaning.

There are but two persons who protect the sinful human race from destroying itself. One is God's Holy Spirit. The other is the Peace Officer. Without them, we would all perish at each other's hands.

You were called into this profession and our Lord and Savior has blessed you because:
According to Romans 13.1-5...
God ordains the Peace Officer’s profession.
The Peace Officer is sent by God.
The Peace Officer is vested with God's authority to enforce the law.
A Peace Officer's badge is to be honored by us, because God honors it.

You gave the ultimate sacrifice, your life for your fellow man, while serving, defending, and protecting others in your community.

Thank you for your service to America. Your efforts saved thousand that horrible day.
My thoughts and prayers go out to your family and friends. You will be in our hearts forever.

I did not know Bureau Chief Charles Mills or the others who lost their lives on September 11th. They are TRUE AMERICAN HERO'S. GOD bless the New York State Office of Tax Enforcement and all of the families associated with them.

Your death will be avenged and your heroism, bravery and sacrifice will never be forgotten?

My Prayers are with all the friends and family of all the officers who lost their lives on September 11, 2001.
I lost my brother tragically, Det. David Taylor, Greensboro PD, On August 7, 2001. I was in NY for my fiancee's Mother's funeral the first of Sept. I was stranded there for 3 weeks due to this atrocity. As I watched the events on TV, I cried for all those who lost their lives. But was especially emotional about the Police Officers and the Firefighters and their families, as I had just recently suffered a tragic loss myself. As I walked through the streets in the days following the attack, I cried with pride as I saw the officers on duty on all the corners in the city. I knew how hard it was for them, knowing they had lost their friends. On the Sat. following the attack I was at St. Patrick's for mass. The last 2 people to go up and take communion were 2 NYPD officers, again I cried. I hope all of you are getting the support that my family and I got when we needed it, from the Deparment. I know the comforting words and even the funny stories the officers tell us about my brother helps. I know that our loved ones who are gone from here, had a higher calling and are happy and at peace in Heaven. Hopefully we can all feel that same peace one day! God bless All of you! And God bless America!

The sacrifice made through your heroism is what holds that thin blue line together. Words are not there to express the gratitude of your service and the sadness of your death I felt as I watched this all fall into place. I am praying for your family and asking God to put them close to Him and feel His presence.

Well your days of protecting us are over. But you will forever be in service. Your eternal service... the inspiration you and your fellow bothers and sisters have re-enforced in my heart, will live so long as I do. Though I will not always carry your name in the front of my mind, not in my duties as a soldier or as the police officer I plan to become when I get home, I will still always carry with me the knowledge of your sacrifice... of your heroism, of your selflessness... I will carry a samll piece of you everywhere I go. Be it with an M-16 in my hands in a strange land, or a badge on my chest in my own back yard... long after the flags come down and the nation carries on... until the day I die... you will continue to serve... as my inspiration. God bless you. God bless your family. God bless your agency. God bless FDNY. God bless all the soldiers, sailors, airmen, coast guardsmen, and marines. God bless New York City. GOD BLESS AMERICA. Thank you my brothers and sisters. I love you.
