As a past memeber of the Greenfield Police Department, I want to express my sympathy to the Family and my fellow Brother and Sisters of the Greenfield Police Department. I left the Greenfield Police Department over 20 years ago, but it is still near to my heart. I did not know Officer Phillips but know he was a dedicated Officer. Brothers and Sisters never forget. I hope you find the coward that left the scene and is prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. God Bless

Those brothers and sisters left behind will keep the memory of your dedicated, loving, honorable and service of integrity alive for generations to come. They will also care for your family. God bless you and your family. Rest in peace, In Christ.

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"
