As you departed the bonds of this earth and touched the face of God, know that the service and dedication you had for your department, its fellow officers and the citizens of your community will never be forgotten. May God comfort in this time of sorrow your family, your fellow officers and all those whose lives you have touched. You have served your time in hell, now rest comfortably in the arms of God. We’ll take it from here.

Seasons drift so quickly
Beneath the single sky
A lesson in the making
All things must come to die.
Therein lies the silence
The journey beyond the breath
To flowers in the forest
We've now become in death.
But speak of the glint of the eye
Reflected in Damascus Blade
For those who saw freedom & honor
And in battle their lives they gave.
So take heart men of Valor
Know your deeds will endure the night
Live on as flowers in the forest
Live on, within God's light.

A corrections officer should be remembered not by how he died, but how he lived! A great man has gone to secure a safe path for the rest of us to follow. Thank you to you, your family and the Georgia Department of Corrections. Our country is a little less safe without you. Rest in Peace Brother.
