Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

“REMEMBER ME”
Law enforcement officers are, indeed, a special breed of people. Ask anyone on the street and they will tell you that they would not have our jobs for anything in the world. It takes something special to do what we do and at the same time be able to even contemplate retirement. We try to be optimists. Unfortunately, there are a few of us who will never make that date with retirement. By the very nature of our job, we are at risk everyday of losing our lives, either at the hand of some deranged individual or in some other situation that we, by virtue of our occupation, may be unable to avoid. Some people have recognized the hazardous duties we involve ourselves in, the risks we take, and the pride we take in accomplishing that job. There is National Law Enforcement Week, dedicated to us who gladly accept the responsibility of protecting the citizens in our respective jurisdictions. National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Day is dedicated to those who gave their lives in the line of duty. These are but two examples of remembrances specifically for law enforcement personnel. Remembrances that come but once a year. We should remind fellow officers of another type of remembrance, one that will last a lifetime. Sooner or later, a doctor will pronounce us dead. It is inevitable. Regardless of whatever happens, death is the end we will all have to face.

I can not believe this man is no longer with us. For those who didn't know Kevin he was an all-around great person. Very profession to everyone .. even those he arrested. He will be sorely missed. My heart goes out to his family and those who worked with him. Taken away too soon. Thank you Kevin for doing your job day in day out without a single complain. You Sir were CPR in it's truest form.

Our deepest sympathy goes out to the family, friends and all the members of the New York City Police Department. We were made safer by his service and we all suffer their tragic loss. The family of Officer Lee deserves our appreciation and gratitude for their sacrifice. In the days to follow, may you be strengthened by the fact that Officer Lee is a man distinguished by exceptional courage and will always be admired for his brave deeds and noble qualities. You, your family and your sacrifice will never be forgotten.

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.

Tonight, January 27, 2006 we dedicated the shift to the memory of Police Officer Kevin Lee who died in the line of duty just a few hours ago.

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

Officer Lee’s sacrifice will never be forgotten.
