To Tom's Family & Friends

You are being thought of and prayed for by many, some you know and many more that you don't. Know that so many people are here to support you and help you when you don't think you can go one more step. We too have lost a loved on in the line of duty and know some of the path you will be walking. This page, the kind words and actions of others, many prayers, and God will provide you with strengh you will never understand but will be thankful for. We will not forget Tom and we will not forget you and the sacrifice made by your family.

Someone we loved very much has now physically gone away. We will miss him more than any other person could ever know or possibly understand. In his place his leaving has left many wonderful moments. Cling to those memories, They can serve as salve for our hurts and balm for our heartfelt pains. They will help to get us through today, tomorrow, and the many tomorrows to come. And so can God. Rest on Him. Lean on His people.
...for everything there is a reason.

Day is done,
gone the sun.
From the hills,

From the skies.
All is well,

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. Thank you Corporal Roberts for a job well done. Please continue to watch over us and protect us as only you can. You will forever be at our side and in our hearts.

For those of you who still have loved ones with us please take the time to tell them how much you appreciate and care about them.

IF I KNEW

If I knew it would be the last time
That I'd see you fall asleep,
I would tuck you in more tightly
and pray the Lord, your soul to keep.

If I knew it would be the last time
that I see you walk out the door,
I would give you a hug and kiss
and call you back for one more.

If I knew it would be the last time
I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise,
I would video tape each action and word,
so I could play them back day after day.

If I knew it would be the last time,
I could spare an extra minute
to stop and say "I love you,"
instead of assuming you would KNOW I do.

If I knew it would be the last time
I would be there to share your day,
Well I'm sure you'll have so many more,
so I can let just this one slip away.

For surely there's always tomorrow
to make up for an oversight,
and we always get a second chance
to make everything just right.

There will always be another day
to say "I love you,"
And certainly there's another chance
to say our "Anything I can do?"

But just in case I might be wrong,
and today is all I get,
I'd like to say how much I love you
and I hope we never forget.

Tomorrow is not promised to anyone,
young or old alike,
And today may be the last chance
you get to hold your loved one tight.

So if you're waiting for tomorrow,
why not do it today?
For if tomorrow never comes,
you'll surely regret the day,

That you didn't take that extra time
for a smile, a hug, or a kiss
and you were too busy to grant someone,
what turned out to be their one last wish.

So hold your loved ones close today,
and whisper in their ear,
Tell them how much you love them
and that you'll always hold them dear

Take time to say "I'm sorry,"
"Please forgive me," "Thank you," or "It's okay."
And if tomorrow never comes,
you'll have no regrets about today.
