Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

It sounds like thunder far away, but the skies are blue and bright... And soon they crest the hill nearby, and ride into our sight.

They shake the ground with powerful sound, and they make some hearts beat fast... They look so proud and noble, like Knights come from the past.

Side by side, they always ride, and seem to move as one... From early in the morning light, to the setting of the sun.

And children point and wave to them, from cars that pass them and young ones ask their parents, why the officers have mirrors for eyes.

They ride the roads, and fight for good, and defend small ones like you... They ask to ride, and do with pride, and sometimes they are few.

Like officers of steel, on Silver Wings, they sparkle in the light... then with a roar and rumble, they ride out of our sight.

Sometimes when one has fallen, never to ride again... You can hear the others calling, like thunder on the wind.

Side by side, they slowly ride, and their thunder is a mournful sound... And the mirrors hide their eyes from us, when teardrops fall to ground.

So if you see one riding, and you look into his face... You see your reflection in his eyes; you know that you are safe.

For motor officers are a special breed, they love to ride the wind... And when you hear the thunder boom, the fallen ones ride again...

Rest in Peace Brother

Chris,
As many stated before me, you were a very likable guy with a contagious smile. I never heard an ill word about you from anyone. I may not have known you as well as others did, but I grieve for you and your family. We hear and read about these things every day, but when it hits close to home, it's so hard bear. We'll all be here for your family, whatever the need, whatever the cost, because you are part of our family. We'll miss you brother!

Officer Yung, Rest 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 22 months. Feel those prayers. God is with you, He knows and will ease your pain.
