They weep for the loss of a brother, they gather to
talk about the what if's.
They feel the pain and
sorrow building, with some it is instant, with others it
stuns them as it slowly sinks in, it can bring even the
strongest man to tears.
It was a job you wanted to
do, not because you had to do it.
You touched so
many people with your friendship, looking out for
others, offering a helping hand to those in need,
winning people over with your smile, your laughter,
and your many shades of red.
Now God has called
you home and we are left with the pain of your loss,
we will never forget you and the happiness that you
gave us.
May angels protect you and lift you high
with their wings singing your praise.

On March 29, 2008 Officer Jim Fezatte of the Millbrook Police Department paid the ultimate price for the protection of our freedoms. In doing so in an unselfish manner he has guranteed his position as a guardian of the throne of Almighty God. Rest in peace Jim. Job well done.

Jim was the gentleman of third shift while still remaining one of the guys. Jim will remain in our hearts and minds from this day forward. Jim is now patrolling in heaven walking next to our lord and protecting the kingdom of heaven. God bless you Jim! We miss you!

When God Made Peace Officers
Unknown Author
When the Lord was creating peace officers, he was into his sixth day of overtime when an angel appeared and said, "You're doing a lot of fiddling around on this one"

And the Lord said, "Have you read the spec on this order?" A peace officer has to be able to run five miles through alleys in the dark, scale walls, enter homes the health inspector wouldn't touch, and not wrinkle his uniform."

He has to be able to sit in an undercover car all day on a stakeout, cover a homicide scene that night, canvass the neighborhood for witnesses and testify in court the next day."

He has to be in top physical condition at all times, running on black coffee and half-eaten meals. And he has to have six pairs of hands."

The angel shook her head slowly and said, "Six pairs of hands...no way."

"It's not the hands that are causing me problems." said the Lord, "It's the three pairs of eyes an officer has to have."

"That's on the standard model?" asked the angel.

The Lord nodded. "One pair that sees through the bulge in a pocket before he asks, 'May I see what's in there sir?' (When he already knows and wishes he'd taken that accounting job.) Another pair here in the side of the head for his partner's safety. And another pair of eyes here in the front that can look reassuringly at a bleeding victim and say. 'You'll be all right ma'am.' When he knows it isn't so."

"Lord," said the angel, touching his sleeve, "rest and work on this tomorrow."

"I can't" said the Lord, "I already have a model that can talk a 250 pound drunk into a patrol car without incident, and feed a family of five on a civil service pay check."

The angel circled the model of the peace officer very slowly. "Can it think?" she asked.

"You bet." said the Lord. "It can tell you the elements of a hundred crime scenes; recite Miranda warnings in his sleep; detain, investigate, search, and arrest a gang member on the street in less time than it takes five learned judges to debate the legality of the stop...and still keeps its sense of humor."

"This officer also has phenomenal personal control. He can deal with crime scenes painted in hell; coax a confession from a child abuser; comfort a murder victim's family; and then read in the daily paper how law enforcement isn't sensitive to the rights of criminal suspects."

Finally, the angel bent over and ran her fingers across the cheek of the peace officer. "There's a leak." She pronounced. "I told you that you are trying to put to much in this model."
"That's not a leak," said the Lord, "it's a tear."
"What's the tear for?" asked the angel.
"It's for bottled-up emotions; for fallen comrades; for commitment to that funny piece of metal called his badge; for justice."
"You're a genius." said the angel.
The Lord looked somber. "I didn't put it there." he said.
We will keep you in our prayers and hope you can find some solace in these few words.
