Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Everytime an Officer is taken my heart sinks.
You men and women lay it on the line everyday.
Its not about the money,you have a calling and follow it,
hoping to make the streets a lot safer.
The jobs never easy but you love it anyway.
Thank you Jonathan Schroeder for all you did while you were here. You are an Outstanding Man Of Honor.
You and your immediate & extended family are in my prayers.
With Deepest Sympathy & Utmost Respect

From all I read and hear, the world is a better place because you were here. Cleveland is a better city because you found it and called it home. WestPark will never be the same because you're gone. I know the Angels greeted you. I believe the Angels will watch over all you left behind. Sympathy and prayers for your Wife and Sone and all your family.

A POLICEMAN'S PRAYER
BROTHER WHEN YOU WEEP FOR ME REMEMBER THAT IT WAS MEANT TO BE.
LAY ME DOWN AND WHEN YOU LEAVE REMEMBER I'LL BE AT YOUR SIDE...IN EVERY DARK AND DREARY ALLEY I'LL BE THERE AS YOU SLOWLY TREAD, ON EVERY STREET CORNER IN THE DRIVING SNOW I'LL HOLD YOUR COAT AND YOU WILL KNOW.
IN PLACES WHERE THE DEVIL IS AFRAID TO WALK...
AT DOORS WHERE YOU MEET RESISTANCE...
IN HOUSES WHERE CHILDREN HIDE...
YOU KNOW I'LL BE AT YOUR SIDE.
THE PLACE FROM WHICH I NOW RESPOND IS OVERSTAFFED WITH HEROES GONE...MEN WHO ANSWERED ONE LAST JOB AND DID IT WELL.
AS POLICEMEN WE UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS A CARD DEALT IN OUR HAND...A CARD WE HOPE WE NEVER PLAY BUT WE HOLD IT THERE ANYWAY.
THE CARD IS SOMETHING WE IGNORE AS WE STAND ON THAT THIN BLUE LINE EVERY TOUR...FOR WE KNOW THAT WE ARE THE ONLY PRAYER FOR MANY OUT THERE.
SO REMEMBER, AS YOU WIPE YOUR TEARS, THE JOY I HAVE KNOWN THROUGHOUT THE YEARS...AS THE JOB I LOVED TO DO I PRAY THAT THIS THOUGHT WILL SEE YOU THROUGH.

The first thing we saw when we came on shift Thursday morning was the boss pointing to his badge and telling us to put on our black bands...that a Cleveland cop had been killed. May your bravery be passed onto us as we continue the good fight. Thousands of us in blue will honor your life Wednesday at your funeral. May your family find comfort in our LE family. May that scumbag that murdered you rot in hell.

To the family, friends, and officers that knew Officer Schroeder, my thoughts and prayers are with you as you face the trying times ahead of you. Please know your not alone.

Here I am, lost in the light of the moon that comes through my window
Bathed in blue, the walls of my memory divide the thorns from the roses
It's you and the roses

Touch me and I will follow in your afterglow
Heal me from all this sorrow
As I let you go I will find my way when I see your eyes
Now I'm living in your afterglow

Here I am, lost in the ashes of time, but who wants tomorrow?
In between the longing to hold you again
I'm caught in your shadow, I'm losing control
My mind drifts away, we only have today

Touch me and I will follow in your afterglow
Heal me from all this sorrow
As I let you go I will find my way
I will sacrifice 'til the blinding day when I see your eyes
Now I'm living in your afterglow

When the veils are gone as I let you go, as I let you go

Touch me and I will follow in your afterglow
Heal me from all this sorrow
As I let you go I will find my way, I will sacrifice
Now I'm living in your afterglow

Bathed in blue, the walls of my memory divide the thorns from the roses
It's you who is closest

I come to this site every morning and hoping I will not find another name of an officer that has been taken from us so early in life. His smile looks captivating and that seeing officer Schroeder that you wouldn't be able to return that smile. To the wife, and little one our prayers and thoughts are with you at this time of great loss. Officer Shroeder will always be a hero and someone you can always be proud of.
"A Part Of America Died",
Somebody killed a policeman today,
And part of America died.
A piece of our country he swore to protect,
Will be buried with him at his side.
The suspect that shot him will stand up in court,
With counsel demanding his rights.
While a young widowed mother must work for her kids,
And spend many long lonely nights.
The beat he walked was a battle field too
just as if he had gone off to war.
Though the flag of our nation won't fly at half mast,
To his name they will add a gold star.
Yes, somebody killed a policeman today,
In your town or mine,
While we slept in comfort behind locked doors,
A cop put his life on the line.
Now his ghost walks a beat on a dark city street,
And stands at each new rookies' side.
He answered the call,of himself and gave his all,
And a part of America died.

God Bless all of you and all the brothers and sisters that wear the badge of law enforcement we pray for you daily.
