My heart breaks for you. I do understand your pain. Jeff (my husband) was killed when our only child was 5 days from turning 3, he was killed by a drunk driverwho rammed into him at 100 mph.
There are no words to make this better right now, but in time, as a believer, you will be able to find comfort in our Lord. He has not left you and HE is suffering this pain with you. He will give you the strength you need to get thru this and help your child as well... I know, He did not let me down.
I wish I had a way to take this away for you, because I know the pain and the pain to come, but all I can do is let you know you will be given strength you never knew you were capable of. May the Lord be with you, your daughter, your family and the department. I will be praying for the Lord to hold you tight and be your comfort when you are hurting...
Again, my heart breaks for you, and your child...
In Christ's Love,

Sgt. White and Family
Your shift is now over on this earthly place. You are now patroling the streets of Gold. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family. Sgt.White they have your back from here.

I wrote this In Honor Of The Badge one day when I pinned by husband's Badge on his uniform.

I'm worn on each and every officers chest My fellow officers on sadden times cover me up with their black loops I have seen in my many years of being worn upon their chest Happy, Sad and Sorrow. My Badge of Honor has once again seen another one fall. Oh I cry be with my fellow officers and families left behind. May God be with each and every one of them and their families.

Though I never knew him, he was part of my Law Enforcement family and I will mourn this deep loss the rest of my life. My heart aches with all the losses we have suffered, and continue to suffer, through the years. God is our only peace through such incidents & our comfort is the assurance that He will judge the guilty.

Another senseless tragedy
Another day of grief,
Another day of praying
To help us find relief.

Relief from bitter anguish
Relief from rage so great,
Relief from lenient justice
Which continues to seal our fate.

Relief from heartache’s torment
As we continue on,
Oh, the awesome loss of brotherhood
Now that you are gone.

Though our hearts are deeply broken
And our tears forever flow,
There’s a comforting assurance
That now with God you go.

We know that you are welcome
Now at Heaven’s gate,
While meeting brothers & sisters
Who also met such fate.

The family of Law Enforcement
Knows no distance here or there,
As we recall in comfort
You await us there.

Rest in Peace brother and thank you for your service. My prayers are with your family during this dark time for them.

Sgt White's Family
You are in my prayers and Randy was taken to early and should of have had more time with you guys. I know words at this time will never stop the hurt, since my family has felt the lost with the death of my future son in-law Josh Norris. Your Husband and Dad is not far from you, he is the whisper in the wind, that feeling of being hugged when no one is there, he will always be at your side watching over ever accomplishment and catching ever tear that you guys shed. What has helped my family and may help yours, remember your love ones laugh, his smile and all those things that are unique to him, since they are truly what made him. He is a true hero in every sense of the word and your police family extends it arms to you, if this one from Louisiana can do anything do not hesitate to ask. God bless you and he will give you strength.

So very tragic! Randy is now an Angel looking down upon you!

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is over.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
