Reflections for Police Officer Michael Paul Davey
Dear Officer Davey,
Most people don't realize how dangerous directing traffic is - I'm grateful for all your years off service both in and out of the PD. Thank you; you will be remembered.

My heart breaks for your family as I know their pain. My first husband was also killed in the line of duty when he was hit by a tractor trailer. I pray time will help your scars heal (they never go away) and you may find peace and happiness through your memories of time you shared. May God wrap his loving arms around you and give you comfort in knowing we will see our loved ones again in Heaven.

Farewell brother. You will be missed. You time here has come to a close. To the Davey family, I will pray for peace and comfort in this time of grief. I pray that you have the strength to press on. I am sorry for you loss.
Our Greatest Fear
Yet once again the Thin Blue Line is diminished,
an officer’s final tour of duty is finished.
"Officer down", it’s our greatest fear,
and once again, I hold back a tear.
They patrol in the state, city, county and town,
in uniforms colored white, green, blue and brown.
The shape of their badges may vary,
but it’s a symbol that they all, proudly carry.
They leave for work with a kiss goodbye,
but some don’t come home, no matter how hard they try.
To uphold the law is the job that they pick,
with such high aspirations, why must some die so quick?
They leave behind loved ones, family and friends,
after their lives have met tragic ends.
Some die in crashes, others hearts not too stout,
to many have been lost when gunshots ring out.
Our Heavenly Father has called them home,
no more these dark streets do they roam.
Through trial and error they have given their best,
please Lord, now grant them eternal rest.
Yet once again the Thin Blue Line is diminished,
an officer’s final tour of duty is finished.
"Officer down", it’s our greatest fear,
and once again I hold back a tear.

Rest easy, my brother, I pray for a peace for your family and comrades. Totally senseless and breaks our heart to release you to God at a young age. A warrior has fallen, who will rise up and take his stand? I have jumped into a ditch as a pickup slid past me with the tires smokin'. You have to be ready but it can happen ever so quickly.
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!
