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 “it’s 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.

IN MEMORY OF POLICE OFFICER KEVIN JORDAN
To the family, friends, and colleagues of Police Officer Kevin Jordan:
From the beginning of time after Cain killed his brother, Abel, there has been a need for law enforcement officers to protect the weak and to bring evildoers to justice. This work is necessary in a sinful world and is dangerous. In modern times, some six hundred and sixty-seven Law Enforcement Officers have sacrificed their lives to protect the citizens of the State of Georgia. Today, we honor Police Officer Kevin Jordan’s sacrifice.
Lord God, we are grateful for the life of Police Officer Kevin Jordan. He died serving us. Help us never to forget. Help us celebrate Police Officer Kevin Jordan’s life and honor his sacrifice. Be with the family, friends, and colleagues of this fallen hero. Comfort them and give them your strength. Guide those who seek to take care of the family of this hero. May those empowered to do so, care for them with integrity. In commemorating the death of this hero, help those who mourn to remember that death is not the end. Death does not have the final say, but is simply the transition to the glorious life to come. They should look forward to that life to come with joy and thanksgiving.
As for the citizens of Griffin, Georgia, help them to faithfully equip their Law Enforcement Officers with the best tools to protect their community. May their training be adequate to the task. Help the citizens of Griffin, Georgia, to remember to pay their Law Enforcement Officers fairly and treat them with respect. Help the citizens of Griffin, Georgia, to obey the law and treat each other with dignity so as not to add to the burden of crime and pain to their community.
The time for mourning will soon pass. We have now remembered and celebrated the life lost in this great tragedy. As the family, friends, and colleagues of Police Officer Kevin Jordan go forward, they must celebrate the good things in their lives; and to celebrate life itself!
Lord God, hear our prayers.
Now, may the Lord bless you, and keep you: the Lord make His face to shine upon you, and be gracious unto you: the Lord lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace. Amen.
In His Service,
Pastor Steven R. Closs
