Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

The following is a song by the Christian group MercyMe:

"Homesick"

Your in a better place, I've heard a thousand times
And at least a thousand times I've rejoiced for you
But the reason why I'm broken, the reason why I cry
Is how long must I wait to be with you

I close my eyes and I see your face
If home's where my heart is then I'm out of place
Lord, won't you give me strength to make it through somehow
I've never been more homesick than now

Help me Lord cause I don't understand your ways
The reason why I wonder if I'll ever know
But, even if you showed me, the hurt would still be the same
Cause I'm still here so far away from home

In Christ, there are no goodbye's
And in Christ, there is no end
So I'll hold onto Jesus with all that I have
To see you again

I close my eyes and I see your face
If home is where my heart is then I'm out of place
Lord, won't you give me strength to make it through somehow
I've never been more homesick than now.

We all must make sure that we are "right" with God, and that we are Saved by His Grace.

Thank you for your service, Watch over your Brothers in Blue, Rest in peace

For Police Officer James Bonneau:

Our duty as law officers takes us to the scene of many and varied assignments. Few are more deadly than the domestic argument. Tempers flare, heated words are exchanged and violence is in graded variation. When the officer arrives the focus can easily change, as violence towards the arriving officer can be sudden and without warning. Assisting officers, arriving to the scene, are often compelled to use deadly force. It has happened before, and it is sure to happen again. We will continue to serve and to protect.

We regret that Jim has become a statistic on this sad day. He joins a legion of officers before him who have laid down their life rather than swerve from the path of duty. No honor is higher. No sacrifice is greater.

We pray for Jim's family, friends, co-workers and all who care about him. May the be ready to reach-out to one another when the time is appropriate.

I am proud to render Officer James Bonneau a final salute.

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"
