"Final Call"

An Angel In The Sky Must Leave His Place Of Rest,
Gently Tucking His Wings Beneath His Armored Vest.
For Duty Has Called, There Is Much Work To Do
Little Did He Know, This One Is Dressed In Blue.

Arriving On The Scene, He Knows Just What To Say,
"Follow Me, Fallen Brother, I'll Show You The Way."
"Your Duty Has Ended, Your Work Is Now Through."
"Come Hang Your Hat Beside Mine, I'm A Cop, Too."

When I began my law enforcement career, D.D. Geddie, was one of those few officer that would stop and help you in learning how to do this job right. Nobody "knew" D.D., you "experienced" D.D. He was a quiet man who was the picture of character, honor, and integrity. I spoke with D.D. last December, while he worked security at a local store, and was refreshed just by visiting with him. I can only hope to achieve the status of a man as he represents. Godspeed D.D., save me a place at the banquet table. John 15:13 "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." Matthew 5:9 "Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God." We love and miss you D.D.

We have no words to immediately buffer the pain felt by your family at your passing.

Perhaps there will be some comfort for your family in the trying days to come as we citizens express our sincere gratitude for your life, service, and supreme sacrifice.

Your light will continue to shine in this world through the example of your life.

I have no doubt you will soon hear the words,
"Well done, good and faithful servant."

To The Family of Constable Dale Geddie:

We in our Fire Department are saddened to hear of the death of Constable Geddie. Please accept our sincere condolensences. We share your pain and your sorrow. We also lost a dear family member in recent years. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Such losses are hard to contemplate; however, I believe it can best be explained as an unselfish act of giving his life so that the citizens of Smith County are protected from individuals who hold such reckless disregard for human life.

Remember the biblical message: "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends"
"Blessed are the Peacekeepers, for they shall be the children of God"!!!!!!

Dale Geddie is a super law enforcement officer as well as a super human being. It is a majior loss to the residents in Pct. 4 . If there could even be a IDEAL law enforcment person, it was Dale. He was very supportive of our small volunteer fire department, which was in his pct. Dale will be missed very much by one and all. My deepest sympathy goes out to his wife and kids , and all that knew and worked with him . As one of the earlier posts mentioned, HE IS RE-ASSIGNED. Wel will miss you Dale.

I met Dale at the race track where he worked security on Saturday nights, and he was one the most friendly guys you would ever meet. Always a warm smile and a handshake and usually more than one pat on the back. Nearly every time I saw him whenever we passed during the night he would pat me on the back and he just knew how to make you feel great. I will surely miss his winning smile and those pats I have become so familiar with. It's a terrible loss not only to the racing family but for the law enforcement family and residents in Smith County. It's going to be hard for a long time to come just knowing he won't be at the race track anymore. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family as I know this is so hard for them to believe. He was a one of a kind man and I will miss him.
