Allen my friend, you will be truely missed by all. Our working relationship in Lenior and Craven County to say the least, a job well done my friend. God best you Allen.
Deputy's Prayer
Oh Lord, while I'm on patrol may I know that you're with me, and protect me as I go to guard other's lives and
property.
Help me to ignore those who scorn and show me no respect, but be mindful of all citizens I've sworn that I'll protect. Be with my fellow officers and guard their safety
too. May I always put my duty first in the work that I must do. May I not disgrace the uniform, but bring pride to the badge I wear. That I'd be a good officer, Lord,
would be my only prayer.
Amen

My prayers and heart go out to the family and friends of De.t Alllen Pearson of Lenoir County Sheriff's Dept. NC.
Your life was cut short, but your legacy of love and devotion to your job to seek justice for those who have ignored authority and selfishly commit fatal acts. God is final judge and you will rest in the kingdom until that day when those you left behind will join in singing praises unto Him on that day. Thank you sir for everything you did and to have been called to serve and wear The Thin Blue Line was a humble honor of which you stepped up the plate and did. God bless.
