There are absolutely no right words to say.......rest easy my brother.
POLICE OFFICER

And He will raise you up on eagles wings
Bear you on the breath of dawn
Make you to shine like the sun
And hold you in the palm of His hand.
And hold you, hold you in the palm of His hand

To the family and friends of Deputy Lee:
I'm so sorry to hear about this tragic loss in your lives. Even though you can know that he is at peace now there will always be that void and the pain of knowing how his life was cut short by violence. I especially feel for the backup officer in this situation.. that has to be such a haunting situation that you had to deal with and I will be praying that you can get through this knowing that you did all that you could. I hope that all of you who knew Deputy Lee can come together to honor his memory and comfort each other through the painful and difficult times that lay ahead. God bless you all!

I reflect, and remember:
All gave some
And some gave all
Some stood through
For the red, white and blue
And some had to fall
And if you ever think of me
Think of all your liberties
And recall
Some gave all. (unknown writer)

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.
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 it is honored by God.
To the family of Deputy Sheriff Bruce Lee and the Riverside County Sheriff's Department, your extended family of Law Enforcement Officers grieve with you during this time. I pray that God will wrap his loving arms around each of you during this most difficult time.
To all my brothers and sisters, please remember the fallen officers we have lost. Remember the men and women who died trying to make this world a safer and better place for us all to live in. May God be with you every day, please remember, we are a part of the largest family in the world and when one hurts we all hurt.
Though our badges and uniforms may be different, our mission is the same. Rest in peace with our other fallen Brothers and Sisters. We will continue the fight in your honor.
