Reflections for Sergeant Kenneth Gary Vann, Sr.
Honor those who've made the ultimate sacrifice.
Police Officers Prayer
Oh Almighty God, whose great power and eternal wisdom embraces the universe.
Watch over all policemen and law enforcement officers.
Father in Heaven please give them the strength, courage and perseverance to endure
The unjust condemnation, danger, and physical abuse to which they are at times subjected.
We recommend them to your loving care because their duty is dangerous.
Dear God, grant these brave men your almighty protection,
Unite them safely with their families after duty has ended.
Amen
Sending my prayers to this Deputy's family and his co-workers during this horrific time.

The evil forces in todays world think they won again but God has received another loving, honorable and brother of integrity and never ending devotion to serving His children. This knowledge of your transfer to Gods kingdom to serve alongside all of our heroic brothers and sisters will serve to keep your name and honor in the forefront of memory for years to come. Those left behind will never let you br forgotten and they will care for your family. Well done faithful brother, rest in peace in Gods ranks of law enforcement. In Christ.

May God Bless you Sergeant Kenneth Gary Vann. Your death was so uncalled for and so brutal, may the Lord wrap his arms around you and you will be comforted for eternity. May God Bless and be with his family, friends, and coworkers. May he give you all some peace and guidance during this very traumatic and sad time. I am so sorry for your loss.
I am a surviving wife myself and I understand all that you are going through, although it varies from person to person, but we all will go through some very hard and difficult times now, in the days and weeks ahead and in our life time.
If anyone needs someone to talk to that has and still is going through a lot of the emotions as well as other things please email me or call me and I would be happy to help anyone at any time the best way that I can.
With prayers and love,
