Reflections for Investigator Chadwick Alan Carr
You will never be forgotten by your Police Brothers and Sisters. Thank you for your service to your country and to your community. Rest in peace Brother.
I AM A WARRIOR — by Jon F. Hooper
I stand with God. I fight not for glory or fame, for they are momentary.
I fight for those who can’t. I fight for Justice.
I fight for the oppressed and the downtrodden.
And if I should lose my life for these just causes, then I have no regrets, for I serve to protect the innocent.
It matters not where or when, for evil knows no boundaries.
Be it fire, flood, or the threat of tyranny, I will not flee.
Justice is my weapon. Faith is my shield. Hope is my armor.
Cry not at my passing, for it was my honor to fight for you.
Shed not tears of sorrow, but tears of joy:
For now, I stand with God!
Blessed are the peacekeepers

My prayers go out to Investigator Carr's sons, wife, family, friends, and coworkers. It is very tragic to see our loved ones leave this earth. Know that they are in a peaceful place and to feel reassured you will someday meet them again.
May god be with all of you during this sad time.

For Investigator Chadwick Alan Carr:
While our job involves myriad risks, none is greater than driving on a United States highway. Over fifty-thousand deaths a year and countless injured validate this simple fact.
Each of us that enforce the law must remain ever mindful that our greatest threat and highest risk is when we are seated behind the wheel of our vehicles. Even our greatest skills and our constant vigilance might not be enough to save us.
It is unfortunate that Chad, certainly and young and up-coming star investigator, had to become a statistic. He is none-the-less a hero as he died performing in a high-risk job that proved fatal beyond the normal risks of this complex assignement.
To Investigator Chad Carr I render a final salute.

I attended the academy with Chad Carr. He was a good officer with strong instincts. But more than that, he once told me the highlight of his day was seeing his kids. He will be missed by many.

His Judgment Day:
The officer stood and faced his God, Which must always come to pass. He hoped his shoes were shinning, Just as brightly as his brass.
"Step forward now, Officer, How shall I deal with you? Have you always turned the other cheek To my church have you been true?"
The officer squared his shoulder and said, "No, Lord, I guess I aint, Because those of us who carry badges can't always be a saint.
I've had to work most Sundays, And at times my talk was rough, And sometimes I've been violent Because the streets are tough.
But I never took a penny That wasn't mine to keep.. Though I worked a lot of overtime, when the bills got too steep.
And I never passed a cry for help Though at times I shook with fear. And sometimes, God forgive me, I've wept an unmanly tear.
I know I don't deserve a place among the people here. They never wanted me around except to calm their fear.
If you've a place for me here, Lord, it needn't be so grand. I never expected or had too much, But if you don't...I'll understand.
There was silence all around the throne, where the saints often trod. As the officer waited quietly for the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now, Officer. You've borne your burdens well. Come walk a beat on heaven's streets, You've done your time in hell"
