No greater love has a man than this, that he would lay down his life for a friend. Officer Brown gave the ultimate for his friends, the citizens of St. Louis. Go rest high on the mountain my brother. To Officer Brown's family I pray that someday God will give you peace and understanding. To the officers of the St. Louis P.D. I pray you swift arrest of the low life scums that took Officer Brown from among you. God's Speed my brothers.

Police Officer Norvelle Brown, nothing I can do or say can lessen the pain your family is now going through. What I can say for sure is that they WILL be taken care of by those of us i the thin blue line, it may be thin but it is incredibly strong; they will not be alone. To you Officer Brown I can say you will never be forgotten by those of us in the thin blue line, for while it may be thin it is and will remain incredibly strong. God bless you Officer Brown and God bless your family; Det. Michael J. Saxe N.Y.P.D.

No matter the beats we patrol or the distance between us, you are my family. I hurt when you hurt. I shine when you shine. We are one...you were my brother...my brother in blue. Thank you for being who you were, and I will continue to march in your absence...see you in heaven.

Our hearts go out to the Brown family, and the SLMPD on the lost of a young Hero.

Remember earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal. God needed another Police Officer to patrol the heavenly streets, so he took Officer Brown from us, to say "Job well done thy good and faithful servant".
God Bless!

Thank you for your bravery, dedication and sacrifice. May your family take comfort in the fact that you will FOREVER be a hero and NEVER be forgotten. I guess God needed another LEO in heaven, so until one day we meet, keep walking your beat on the Golden Street looking over the rest of the thin blue line. May God Bless your family, friends and colleagues.

God bless you young man.

A HERO shall never be forgotten.

Out of the night that covers me
Black as the Pit from pole to pole
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced or cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance,
My head is bloody, but unbow'd.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Lies but the horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find me, unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.

William Ernest Henley, Invictus, 1875


Gratitude is not enough, Officer Brown, but thank you anyway. We will pray for you and your family, and may they remember that they do not walk alone. Say hi to those we've missed. They, like you, are not lost. I know right where you are.


Peace be with you.

Just to thank him for being so brave and unafrade to stop and question a suspect, to protect us the citizens from harm or ill will. Officer Brown is in our prayers and will be a protector and gaurdian from all evil to the Gates of Heavan.

The policeman 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, 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 judgment 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"
