On the day you have lain this hero to rest, I offer my prayer for him and the family along with Detective Smith who was also slain in this horrible act. May God be with these families in your time of need and rest assured they are on Heavens Patrol today looking out for all of you

To “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 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 awful 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 judgement 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.” –Author unknown
the Wilson Family:
Sorry for your loss- Detective Wilson will be remembered as a true hero. Rest in Peace.

I didn't know Det. Wilson, but was a childhood friend of Det. John Smith who was killed along side him. My prayers go out to Chuck Wilson's family and to all the Morehouse Parish community for the loss of such brave men. They will be greatly missed and will "never" be forgotten.
