May your children grow to understand why you are not there as they move forward in life. May they understand that you gave the ultimate sacrifice to the community you loved and served so well. Our community can never repay them for the hole they will feel, but we can make sure they know each and every day what a wonderful human being you were.

"OFFICER DOWN"


I approach the vehicle, as bluelights bounce around me,
It's not a matter of like and hate, it's the violation I saw.
As I get closer, the danger I do not see,
I'm thinking of enforcing the law.

I hear the shot, and feel the pain,
As I drop to the ground
The car speeds off driven by a man who has to be insane,
As I finally into my radio, mumble,"Officer Down!"

As I lay there, I thought of my wife,
I see the dreams we had made.
I ask the Lord to please spare my life,
Then I felt myself begin to fade.

I stopped him only for speeding,
Then I heard a sweet voice on my ear.
"Come with me son, to Heaven I am leading.
No more will you have to shed a tear."

I opened my eyes to see my Savior,
He said, "Follow me, my son.
He will pay for his behavior,
For you have performed a job well done!"

RIP MY BROTHER

My prayers are with his wife and children. May they find peace in the knowledge that they will be together again and that while Detective White's physical body may be gone, his soul lives on. I pray that they may also, in time, be able to find forgiveness for the wretched individual who committed crime. May they feel the love and appreciation from those around them and from the greater community. God bless them in all their needs.
