Here we are again, mourning the loss of another fine officer. To the Reyka family, our thoughts and prayers are with you in this sorrowful time. We were hoping our man was yours too, so that finally there could be closure. But alas, it appears he was not the one. We will not forget Officer Reyka and we will not rest until his killer is found.

To The Reyka Family,

I will post a a quote I feel is appropriate, and also states a true fact;

"You can Dream, Build, Design and Create the most beautiful place in the world, But it takes People to make that Dream a Reality"

Thank you for honoring us with the "Dream" I'm sure Chris truly believed in and sacrificed for. He is what keeps the "Dream" alive, he is the "People"

God Bless

A POLICE OFFICERS FINAL CALL: a Police Officer stood and faced God, Which must always come to pass. He hoped his shoes were shining, just as brightly as his brass. Step forward now, Officer, How shall I deal with you? Have you always turned the other cheek? To my church have you been true? The Police Officer squared his shoulders and said, "No, Lord, I guess I ain't," Because those of us who carry guns, Can't always be a saint. I've had to work most Sundays, and at times my talk was tough. And sometimes I've been violent, because the world is awfully rough. But, I never took a penny, that wasn't mine to keep… Though I worked a lot of overtime when the bills just got too steep. I never passed a cry for help, though at time I shook with fear. And sometimes, God, forgive me, I've cried unmanly tears. I don't know if I deserve a place among the people here. They really never wanted me around, except to calm their fears. 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. The Police Officer waited quietly for the judgment of his God. Step forward now Officer, You've borne your burdens well. Walk peacefully on heavens streets. You've done your time in Hell.

Rest in peace Sgt. Reyka.

To the family, friends, and officers that knew Sgt Reyka, 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

The policeman stood before 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 a badge
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 time 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 a silence all around the throne
Where the saints had often trod.
As the policeman waited quietly,
For the judgement of his god.

"Step forward now, policeman,
You've born your burdens well.
Come walk a beat on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in hell

Reyka Family, my thoughts and prayers go out to you, friends and co-worker of Officer Reyka. I can't imagine what this time has been like. Though I have never experienced this type of tragedy I remember laying awake at night waiting for my father to get off duty from the local sheriff's department. But we all thank the men and women who go out every day and night and risk their lives to keep ours safe. Just know that Officer Reyka is watching down on everybody and making sure they stay safe. God Bless You!
