Deputy Sheriff Bryan Marshall Berger,
When you made your decision to enter law enforcement some two and a half years ago you became blessed:
For the Lord said, "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God." Matthew 5:9 ESV
When you were preparing yourself to serve your county by engaging in law enforcement training on Monday, April 28, 2014, you answered God's call to serve:
And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, "Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then I said, "Here am I! Send me." Isaiah 6:8 ESV
As a result, you suffered a fatal heart attack sacrificing your life so that others might live and be protected:
And the Lord said, "Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends." John 15:13 ESV
I, along with your family, friends and comrades, will mourn your sacrifice and loss in the line of duty:
And the Lord said, "Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted." Matthew 5:4 ESV
Now go! Rise up! And do battle against Satan and his demons as an angel for the Lord!
In God's merciful love,
Pastor Steven R. Closs
Retired Captain of Police, Nashua Police Department, Nashua, NH
