Reflections for Deputy Sheriff Chad Christian Key
FALLEN HEROES
From the time I was conceived God had for me a plan
He wanted me to get involved to help my fellow man
I know some were against it but God knows what is best
Now that I'm at home with him I have perfect rest
Heaven is so beautiful I'm walking streets of gold
Now I'm serving others including saints of old
I know some still have anger about the way I died
But God sees and bottles every tear you cry
As difficult as it may be please don't hold a grudge
Remember this my loved ones God alone will judge
Then on that resurrection day when all the dead will rise
The Lord will reunite us together in the skies
Soon we will be together never more to part
Until then just remember I'm as close as your heart

Rest in peace Deputy Key.
Grayson County will never forget you. We lost a great part of law enforcement last night.
Myself as well as the other grateful citizens of Grayson County will always be reminded of your courage and sacrifice for us.

I'm so sorry that a individual who wanted to serve his community was slain by someone who was on bond by the legal system, May God bless Officer Key's family and may they find God's peace and hope during this difficult time.
