God full of mercy who dwells on high
Grant perfect rest on the wings of Your Divine Presence
In the lofty heights of the holy and pure
who shine as the brightness of the heavens
to the soul of Nicholas Ivie who has gone to his eternal rest.

His resting place shall be in the Garden of Eden
Therefore; the Master of mercy will care for him
under the protection of His wings for all time
And bind his soul in the bond of everlasting life.
God is his inheritance and he will rest in peace
and let us say AMEN.

Avenue of the Fallen

Standing at attention in their class “A“ uniforms, badges gleaming and shoes like glass, are your brothers and sisters of Law Enforcement. All of whom have previously paid the ultimate price.
Today, like many others, they welcome you to this wonderful place. As you march down the Avenue of the Fallen, all eyes focus on you as if to say its ok you’re with your eternal partners. A salute is followed and a tear can be seen on so many faces.
Welcome, you served well.
Now come join us in the ranks, another is coming home.

My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father’s hand.” (Jesus speaking)

Rest easy brother. We'll take over from here

Gods Speed Brother Ivie. You and your fellow Border Patrol Agents are true warriors of the Badge protecting "Us" from "Them" We thank you for your dedicaton, your valor, your honor and your bravery. All of America owes a debt to you that can never be repaid. The cowards who committed this savage act need to be held accountable and need to be used as an example when an American Warrior is slain. It is a crime that you and your Brothers/Sisters of the Agency are not permitted to use every resource available to the United States to protect yourselves, protect us and avenge the savagry of these animals.

Gods Speed Brother, your brothers of the Northampton Police Department shall honor your bravery, your dedication to the badge and you valor to your Country. We pray for your brothers and sisters of the service and we espcially pray for your family and friends that the loving memories they hold shall heal their hearts in this difficult time.

Rest In Peace my Brother in Green! I know that all the Agents of TCA/NCO-DGL-SON-WCX-CAG-NGL-TCA-AJO and all the other law enforcement officers will not rest until your killers are brought to justice! Sleep well for now we have the watch. Your tragic loss hits close to home for me on many fronts. I look forward to attending any services held here in Utah for you so I can pay my respects to you, a true hero. I worked hand in hand with many Naco Agents, pushing groups and dope. While I don't think we ever met, I still feel a huge hole in my heart since your passing.

The Last Patrol

The morning sun
Ignites the hills
And pushes night
Across the rills.

It fills the Gullies
With Rivers gold
And glazes mountains
Sheer and cold.

It calls the birds
To daybreak’s song
Or ends the Northland’s
Night, so long.

It takes Night’s forest
Off to sleep
And brings forth Day’s
From slumber deep.

And raises once more
Duty’s Call
For Men, Green-clad
To give their all.

And if, one morn’
They gather there
Their faces worn and
Lined with care,

And I’m not there
To answer Roll,
I’m 10-8;
On my Last Patrol.

-Warren Blair


Border Patrol Agent Nick Ivie, stand proud on your Last Patrol. For your professionalism, your honor, your integrity, and your friendship, each of us thanks you. We will, in your honor, carry on. We will never forget as you will be forever missed.

Sir, I believe that you are alive and well in the presence of God.

To Your Family,

Feel His presence as God answers the prayers of many who have fallen to their knees on your behalf. Since the day of my son's death, I have carried every law enforcement officer and their family in my heart.

Every morning I go to my knees. During that time I pray, “Lord, Be with all law enforcement officers. Keep them safe and free from harm. They are your soldiers on the front line of the battle against evil. If one should fall this day - wrap their family in your loving arms. Surround them with loving, caring people to comfort them. Ease their pain. Help them to mourn well. In Jesus' name, Amen”

I have lifted you and your family to God every morning for 19 months. Feel those prayers. God is with you, He knows and will ease your pain.
