Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Thoughts of you today and decided to google your name knowing others had probably honored you as well. I miss you but have such sweet and funny memories of our times together but best of all look forward to seeing you with the rest of the saved when the trumpet of the Lord sounds and we meet in Heaven for our reward of a faithful life.

It will soon be 3 years that your were called away from duty and I know your loved ones and friends miss you today as much as they did when this terrible journey for them began. You are a true hero and heroes never die, you will never be forgotten. Keep watch over your loved ones and protect those still out on patrol

Ruby,

While I rode the Police Unity Tour this year you and your family were in my thoughts.

As I arrived and walked my bicycle around the memorial I thought of you and Mike Johnson. When I looked at the wall for the first time Mike Johnson's name was right in front of me. The odd thing is that the same thing occurred when I got to your name. I know that you and Mike were both watching over me.

Thank You for your service and I will not forget.

I'm Having the Time of My Life

I'm having the time of my life now, the battle is almost won

My faith is strong and my conscience is clear, and I've only begun.

To know the peace He has promised me, the joy of a job well done.

And I count my blessings along the way, And I thank Him for everyone.

I'm having the time of my like right now.

For I never thought I'd ever be given a second chance such as The Lord has given me,

To see with clearer eyes then I have ever seen before.

To know when I knock, HIS Hand will open the door.

How like a dream my old life seems, So far within the past I've traded

foolish fantasies for the things that I will know will last.

And I am strong within His strength, and precious in His sight,

Accepting all He sends, Because His ways are always right.

I'm having the time of my life right now.

Because I've learned to share everything with GOD, each minute I am here.

For He alone can read my heart. And He knows what is in my heart, and within me.

And He makes all things wonderful, because He is my friend!

most people would tell you that law enforcement is a dangerous job. i never listened. I was always afriad when there was a domestic call or when i heard dispatch say use caution with someone. My husband was a little man but his size never mattered to him. He wanted to be a policeman, he wanted to make the small town we lived in a safe place for everyone. i never thought that directing traffic would be the worst thing that he could do. I just want to say to all the officers that read this "To be careful out there and watch out for other drivers and be careful so you can go home to your family" GOD BLESS

Thank you, Deputy Ruby Rainault for your selfless service to the citizens of your community. At an age when most look to getting off the road you embraced duty and in doing so paid the ultimate price. My prayers to your family, friends, and fellow Deputies. As a former Deputy who loved being on the street, I imagine you loved your job as well. You will be remembered as a Hero who gave her all, and asked nothing in return. God Bless, enjoy Heaven and tell Billy hi for us.
