Reflections for Patrolman James Andres Archuleta
From time to time I pay my respects to the fallen Officers on this web page. Being the father of one who lost his Son in the Line of Duty. I find it hard not to Honor these fine young Men and Women who pay the ultimate sacrifice. Today I find a young man with the same last name as ours who lost his life in an auto accident the same as our son. They give their all when duty calls. It makes no difference what the call is. 100% is what they give. My heart goes out to the family of Officer James Archuleta. May they find peace and comfort in the arms of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

In Valor there is Hope.
Policeman's 23rd Psalm
The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want,
His comforting hand reduces fear to naught;
He makes me walk through streets of crime,
But He gives me courage and peace of mind.
He leads me by still waters in the path I trod,
And He says in Romans I'm a "minister of God,"
He leads me in righteousness as He restores my soul,
For His name's sake He keeps me whole.
When I walk through death's valley, right up to the door,
I will fear no evil, for He comforts me more;
For Thou art with me every step of the way,
As thy rod and thy staff protect me each day.
He prepares a table, especially for me,
As I work daily among life's enemies;
He gives me authority to uphold the law,
And He anoints my position in the midst of it all.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me,
Each day of my life through eternity;
As I long to hear Him say, "Well done...,"
When I lay down my life, my badge, and my gun.

Now you will watch over us and protect us from above. Knowing that you have children brings tears to my eyes, but know that we will protect them as we are a family of brothers and sisters no matter what color our uniforms might be.
