We thought of you with love today, But that is nothing new. We thought about you yesterday, And days before that too. We think of you in silence, we often speak your name. Now all we have are memories and a picture in a frame. Your memory is our keepsake with which we'll never part. God has you in his keeping, we have you in our Hearts.

To the family of Officer Johnson, I am truly sorry to hear of your loss. What a fantastic officer. I want to say thank you also to the wife of Officer Johnson for her service. God will take care of your family. Rodney is now in a better place. I sympathize with you because Rodney is a fellow brother, and I had a friend 2 years ago brutally raped and murdered by an illegal immigrant in front of her 7 year old daughter and the pain was almost too much.This has to end sometime, and to the trash that did this to your rodeny, you will get yours on judgement day. May god bless and take care of you.

God bless you, Officer Johnson. You may have saved other lives by pushing the emergency button on your radio. You were doing what we all do...serving the public and representing the best of society. I'm sure your family is proud of you. We in the law enforcement community do not forget brother officers who die in the line of duty.

My heart aches for Officer Johnson's family, friends and his police family! We, too, lost an officer to a senseless shooting last week. The range of emotions felt is hard to put into words. Sadness in the loss, pride and admiration for the job done each and every day to protect us. Know that you are not alone. Thank you God that there are such good people who choose this profession.

I pray that God will comfort each family member and friend and help you through this difficult time. My prayers are with you.
