Reflections for Officer John Miller
Officer Miller, thank you for your service. Neither you, nor your sacrifice, will ever be forgotten. Watch over your family giving them the love, guidance and support they will need as they begin this long, dark journey without you. Watch over your brothers and sisters in uniform as well.
Rest in peace.

God Bless you Officer Miller! My Prayers go out to Officer Millers family, friends and Brothers & Sisters of Law Enforcement. God has called another one of his very special Angels home, to now patrol the streets of Heaven. What a GREAT LOSS to the community, the state of California and the United States of America! To officer Millers family, hold your heads high, be proud and stay strong, for that is what he would want. Your sacrifice will never be forgotten. He is a Hero, not for how he lost his life, but for how he lived his life! GOD IS WITH YOU & NOW JOHN IS WITH HIM!!

"If you find it in your heart to care for somebody else, you will have succeeded." -- Maya Angelou
Aloha Officer John Miller,
Thank you for your service and dedication to your community and your country. You and all officers that continue to lay your lives on the line and pay the ultimate sacrifice to keep our communities and country safe, will NEVER be forgotten.
I believe in the ODMP and Police*Link that visionary and Founder Chris Cosgriff created. There is power in the written and spoken word, in prayer, in what is felt in the heart, and in the soul. Every tribute left in honor for a fallen officer, is a candle lit. Every candle lit, lights another.
Every light represents a reflection left by an individual in the form of a tribute which is and always will be, very personal and special to the fallen hero it was left to honor, and to thousands who will read it. Here we are able to come together and build a quilt for our fallen hero. A quilt built from people who share from their hearts in reflections; tributes.
Officer John Miller, I wish you, your loved ones, and your fellow officers peace and love beyond all understanding. Aloha.
**May all who read this tribute find comfort in this Hawaiian prayer left in this hero's honor. You will NEVER be forgotten. May God allow you to rest in His eternal peace.**
THE PEACE OF " I "
KA MALUHIA O KA "I"
Peace be with you, All My Peace,
O ka Maluhia no me oe, Ku'u Maluhia a pau loa,
The Peace that is " I ", the Peace that is "I am".
Ka Maluhia o ka "I", owau no ka Maluhia,
The Peace for always, now and forever and evermore.
Ka Maluhia no na wa a pau, no ke'ia wa a mau a mau loa aku.
My Peace " I " give to you, My Peace " I " leave with you,
Ha'awi aku wau I ku'u Maluhia ia oe, waiho aku wau I ku'u Maluhia me oe,
Not the world's Peace, but, only My Peace,
The Peace of " I ".
A'ole ka Maluhia o ke ao aka, ka'u Maluhia wale no,
Ka Maluhia o ka "I".

I am so sorry to see another young officer leave us. It is a hard road to travel and my prayers are with John's family.Try to take peace in the fact that there is a special place for these brave men and women who take on this tough job. I know that he is with my son and all the other officers who went before him..sitting with the angels watching over us all. A Mom who understands the pain.

I am so sad to hear of your loss. Everytime an officer goes into the streets his life is in danger and they do it with eagerness in order to protect honest people and it's always the scum who take them away from their loved ones. May you rest in piece sir. My prayers are with your family and other CHP officers.

I Never Dreamed it Would Be Me
(By Sgt. George Hahn, LAPD, Ret., engraved on the Peace Officer Memorial in CA, across from the west steps of the Capitol Building.)
I never dreamed it would be me,
My name for all eternity,
Recorded here at this hallowed place,
Alas my name, no more my face.
"In the line of duty," I hear them say;
My family now the price will pay.
My folded flag stained with their tears;
We only had those few short years.
The badge no longer on my chest,
I sleep now in eternal rest
My sword I pass to those behind,
And pray they keep this thought in mind.
I never dreamed it would be me,
And with heavy heart and bended knee;
I ask for all here from the past,
Dear God, let my name be the last.
Rest in peace brother.
