Reflections for Deputy First Class William H. Beebe, Jr.
DFC William Beebe,
Though we never met we were brothers. We shared a dedication to the protection of our counties, to our great State of Maryland, and to our country. Those of us that dedicate our lives to the service of others be it in the Military/Reserves, Fire/Rescue, or Police/Correctional fields, know and accept the risks that we face everyday. When one of our number is lost it affects us all. I can only hope that one day when our troubles on earth are through that we shall meet in the hereafter.
Rest in Peace Brother...

Deputy Beebe, For the sake of another you risked and lost your life. You are a true hero and will be welcomed above. Though you’ve left this life, those still here on Earth who know and love you will always have you near to guide and watch over them.
God Bless and may you Rest in Peace, Brother.

"The Final Inspection"
The policeman stood and faced his God,
Which must always come to pass.
He hoped his shoes were shining.
Just as brightly as his brass.
"Step forward now, policeman.
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My church have you been true?"
The policeman squared his shoulders and said,
"No, Lord, I guess I ain't,
Because those of us who carry badges
can't always be a saint.
I've had to work most Sundays,
and at times my talk was rough,
and sometimes I've been violent,
Because the streets are awfully tough.
But I never took a penny,
That wasn't mine to keep....
Though I worked a lot of overtime
When the bills got just too steep.
And I never passed a cry for help,
Though at times I shook with fear.
And sometimes, God forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.
I know I don't deserve a place
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around
Except to calm their fear.
If you've a place for me here,
Lord, It needn't be so grand.
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don't.....I'll understand.
There was silence all around the throne
Where the saints had often trod.
As the policeman waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now, policeman,
You've borne your burdens well.
Come walk a beat on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in hell.
