My prayer go out to the family and friends of Deputy James McGrane. In all law enforcment job they always need to be careful of the next car there way to pull over or the house there going out to. You never know who will be behind the wheel or behind that door. I have so much respect for you all. And as a parent and wife that knock is one we never want to get. At times like this we never no what to say. But I do know the Deputy McGrane is in a better place. And after reading about him he went doing what he loved. It will just take time for everyone to heal. And the most important thing for everyone is when Michael Paul if found dead or alive we all will rest better. Well for now may her rest in peace. And may god be with you all his Family, Friends, and most of all his fellow officers. God bless all law enforcement. Thank you for the job well done.

And God said, "I know."
I said, "God, I cry a lot."
And God said,
"That is why I gave you tears."
I said, "God, I am so depressed."
And God said,
"That is why I gave you Sunshine."
I said, "God, life is so hard."
And God said,
"That is why I gave you loved ones."
I said, "God, my loved one died."
And God said,
"so did mine "
I said, "God, it is such a loss."
And God said,
"I saw mine nailed to a cross."
I said, "God, but your loved one lives."
And God said,
" So does yours."
I said, "God, where are they now?"
And God said,
"Mine is on My right and JAMES is in the Light."
I said, "God, it hurts."
And God said,
"I know."

I was in Albuquerque for a training the day this occurred and as it is when any officer is killed in the line of duty, we were terribly saddened. I pray for the McGrane family and know they are well taken care of by their remaining law enforcement family. As APO's we face the same type of dangerous individuals and feel like one of our own is taken from us when a law enforcement officer is killed. I send my deepest condolences to the family and pray not one more officer will have to give his life for others. Be safe out there!!

As I woke up and heard the news of Deputy McGranes death, it brought back all the memories of losing my brother last August 18th. I know the pain your wife and family are enduring at this time and my heartfelt thoughts are with them. As our family was taken care of by all of Michael's friends and fellow officers so will your family.

I am saddened to hear of the senseless murder of this wonderful sounding officer. I hope that they can catch the man who did this and serve him with the justice he deserves. I hope his family knows that Officer's families all over the Nation are mourning with them. God bless.
