Josh,

Lil brother, I don't know where to begin. You were so young. I remember speaking with you minutes after you found out that you passed your POST exam at the academy. You were so excited. I just saw you the other day at the motorpool. You were so happy that you finally got your police car. I had to laugh when you told me about how many miles it had on it, but you were sill so happy that you finally got it.

Josh, you made the ultimate sacrifice lil brother, you're a true hero. I'm going to miss you bro. Josh, we not going to forget about you. Just watch over all of us up there.

Our Greatest Fear

Yet once again the Thin Blue Line is diminished,
an officer’s final tour of duty is finished.
"Officer down", it’s our greatest fear,
and once again, I hold back a tear.
They patrol in the state, city, county and town,
in uniforms colored white, green, blue and brown.
The shape of their badges may vary,
but it’s a symbol that they all, proudly carry.
They leave for work with a kiss goodbye,
but some don’t come home, no matter how hard they try.
To uphold the law is the job that they pick,
with such high aspirations, why must some die so quick?
They leave behind loved ones, family and friends,
after their lives have met tragic ends.
Some die in crashes, others hearts not too stout,
to many have been lost when gunshots ring out.
Our Heavenly Father has called them home,
no more these dark streets do they roam.
Through trial and error they have given their best,
please Lord, now grant them eternal rest.
Yet once again the Thin Blue Line is diminished,
an officer’s final tour of duty is finished.
"Officer down", it’s our greatest fear,
and once again I hold back a tear.
