My deepest condolences to the family of Officer Miller. I too know the pain of losing one that you love in this way. We are only 5 1/2 months into the grieving process, but I can promise that the pain will slowly dull with time and be replaced with only happy memories of cherished times together. May God Bless and Keep You in His Tender Care.
Our family honors your hero as we honor ours.

Officer Miller, I first want to thank you for your service! I was on a call with one of your friends from the academy when he got the call about your accident and although I didn't know you, you must have been an amazing person and officer with his reaction to that phone call. Going into law enforcement it is officers like you I never want to forget. To Officer Millers wife and children, stay strong you are in my prayers! You are some of the most courageous part of law enforcement!

Godspeed Officer Miller!

"The Badge"
He starts his shift each day
To respond to calls unknown.
He drives a marked patrol car.
A police officer he is known.
He's paid by the citizens' taxes
To make it safe on the streets.
But he usually has a second job
'Cause a waitress has his salary beat.
Now he doesn't know a holiday
'Cause he works all year round.
And when Thanksgiving and Christmas finally arrive
At his home he cannot be found.
He's cursed and assaulted often,
The one whos blood runs blue.
He seldom ever gets a thanks,
To some he's just a fool.
His friends are always other cops
'Cause people just don't understand
That underneath his badge and gun,
He's just another man.
He knows there might not be a tomorrow
In this world of drugs and crime.
And he gets so mad at the court system
'Cause the crooks don't get any time.
And each day when he leaves for work,
He prays to God above.
Please bring me home after my shift
So I can see the ones I love.
But tonight he stops a speeding car,
He's alone down this ole' highway.
It's just a little traffic infraction.
He does it everyday.
Well, he walks up to the driver's window,
And his badge is shining bright.
He asked the guy for a driver's license,
When a shot rang through the night.
Yes, the bullet hit its mark,
Striking the officer in the chest.
But the Department's budget didn't buy
Each officer a bullet-proof vest.
So he lay on the ground bleeding.
His blood wasn't blue - His blood was red.
And briefly he thought of his loved ones
'Cause in a moment the officer was dead.
In the news they told the story
Of how this officer had died.
And some who listened cared less,
But those who loved him cried.
Well, they buried him in uniform
With his badge pinned on his chest.
He even had his revolver,
He died doing his best.
