It is with great sorrow that I am here again to give condolances to the family, friends, sisters and brothers who wear the badge of law enforcement. Police Officer Peter Faatz is so very young and starting with a wonderful career. He must have been wanted more by our God for reasons we do not know. He is safe now.
"Police Officer'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.

God Bless You All and Thank you and the rest of the angels that have gone before you.

To the family, friends, and officers that knew Officer Faatz, my thoughts and prayers are with you as you face the trying times ahead of you. Please know your not alone.
Then the rainstorm came, over me
And I felt my spirit break
I had lost all of my, belief you see
And realized my mistake
But time through a prayer, to me
And all around me became still
I need love, love's divine
Please forgive me now I see that I've been blind
Give me love, love is what I need to help me know my name
Through the rainstorm came sanctuary
And I felt my spirit fly
I had found all of my reality
I realize what it takes
'Cause I need love, love's divine
Please forgive me now I see that I've been blind
Give me love, love is what I need to help me know my name
Oh I, don't bet (don't bend), don't break (don't break)
Show me how to live and promise me you won't forsake
'Cause love can help me know my name
Well I try to say there's nothing wrong
But inside I felt me lying all along
But the message here was plain to see
Believe me
'Cause I need love, love's divine
Please forgive me now I see that I've been blind
Give me love, love is what I need to help me know my name
Oh I, don't bet (don't bend), don't break (don't break)
Show me how to live and promise me you won't forsake
'Cause love can help me know my name
Love can help me know my name

Peter,
I will miss you with all my heart my brother! Throughout the last eight or nine months we became so close, this all still seems like a bad dream to me. Your mother and sister have been so strong through all of this, they are such wonderful people. I only wish I would have met them under different circumstances. Fear not, they will be taken care of as their family has now grown by leaps and bounds. You've done your part my dear friend, your brothers and sisters in Zone 3 will take it from here. We will see each other again, I am sure of it.
All my love,
Officer V. T. Lester
