God rest your soul. May this drunk driver be haunted by your memory and may it cause him to never do this again, once he's done his full time in jail.
My prayers are with your family, both at home and at work.

To Officer Bitner's family, friends & co-workers,
I'm so sorry that you have had to join those of us who are already "survivors" by losing your loved one in the line of duty. My first husband (Trooper Calvin Taylor) was also killed when he was struck while outside his patrol car on a traffic stop. The road ahead is a difficult one but know there are many prayers going up for you now & in the days to come. There are many survivors who are willing to listen, talk or share the things that have helped them put one foot in front of the other when they wondered how they could make it another day. Officer Bitner, you will never be forgotten!

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"
