- For many years this officer stood the watch... While some of us lay about at night, this officer stood the watch...
While others of us were attending schools and, yes, even before some of us were born, this officer stood the watch...As our families watched the storm clouds of war
brewing on the horizons of history, he stood the watch...
Often he would look around and see his family needed his guidance, but he knew he must stay because,he had the watch...For many years he stood the watch so that we
and our fellow citizens could sleep soundly in safety knowing that this officer would stand the watch.

Today we are here to say...
"The watch stands relieved..."

An Angel in the Sky Must Leave His Place of Rest.
Gently Tucking His Wings Beneath His Armored Vest.
For Duty has called, There is much work to do.
Little did he know, This One is Dress in Blue.

Arriving on the Scene, He Knows Just What to Say,
Follow me Fallen Brother, I'll Show you the Way,"
Your Duty has Ended, Your Work is now Through,"
Come Hang Your Hat Beside mine,
Im A Cop Too.

Rest in Peace Deputy Robert Griffin,
We all Feel the Pain.

Almighty and Enternal God We Commend Deputy Griffin
in your Loving care,
Bless His Wife,Children,Mother,Family,Friends,and
