TO THE FAMILY, FRIENDS AND COLLEAGUES OF PENNSYLVANIA STATE POLICE, CORPORAL BRYON K. DICKSON, II.

My heart is filled with great sadness at learning of the lost of your loved one and fellow Trooper.
We in the Law Enforcement Community are a family, though we may wear different uniforms and have different badges, shields or stars pinned upon our chest.
Our areas of enforcement may vary, we consist of many different agencies from across the nation, for we are :
Municipal Police Officers, Sheriff's Deputies, State Police Investigators, State Highway Patrol Troopers, Conservation Officers, College Campus Police Officers, Correctional Officers and Federal Agents just to name a few.
We patrol small towns, large cities, college campuses, county roads, state highways, state parks and the United States Borders.
Whether active duty or retired, we are one family, a Law Enforcement Family, brothers and sisters bonded together by HONOR, SERVICE and PRIDE.
Daily we honor our fallen brothers and sisters never forgetting their sacrifice.
Daily our position is clear that we will SERVE and PROTECT our communities without faltering and with no hesitation.
Daily we show pride in our chosen profession LAW ENFORCEMENT, for we willing walk the line of GOOD over EVIL facing the unknown with COURAGE keeping our trust and faith in GOD. We know that evil roam these streets and at any moment in the course of performing our duties the ultimate sacrifice might be required of us in the service to our community, for Law Enforcement is not a job but a calling and only a few will make the decision to commit to that calling to serve for some will give all that they have.
CORPORAL DICKSON!
You did not die in vain
You sacrificed your life in the service to the citizens of the State of Pennsylvania with HONOR, PRIDE and DISTINCTION.
I'm proud to have worn the uniform of a Law Enforcement Officer like you did.
I'm proud to have pinned the badge upon my chest like you did.
I'm proud to have SERVED and PROTECTED my community as you did.
I'm proud to call you my BROTHER!
I commend you my fallen brother for making the ultimate sacrifice in the performance of your duty.
For you left us doing what you chose to do.
Performing a job you were trained to do.
Upholding the oath you swore to do.
Most importantly doing what you loved to do.......SERVING and PROTECTING your community with HONOR and PRIDE making a better and safer place for us all.
FINAL CALL
Corporal Dickson status........Corporal Dickson status..........
Corporal Dickson status.............Attention all Units.............

Rest in Peace, Byron,
A US Marine. A Pennsylvania State Trooper. A life of service to his country and commonwealth. It was an honor to have known and served with you. Semper Fidelis, Corporal.

"The Final Inspection"
The Trooper stood and faced his God,
Which must always come to pass.
He hoped his shoes were shining.
Just as brightly as his brass.

"Step forward now, Trooper.
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My church have you been true?"

The Trooper squared his shoulders and said,
"No, Lord, I guess I ain't".
Because those of us who carry badges
can't always be a saint.

I've had to work most days,
and at times my talk was rough,
and sometimes I've been violent,
Because the streets are awfully tough.

But I never took a penny,
That wasn't mine to keep....
Though I worked a lot of overtime
When the bills got just too steep.

And I never passed a cry for help,
Though at times I shook with fear.
And sometimes, God forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.

I know I don't deserve a place
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around
Except to calm their fear.

If you've a place for me here,
Lord, It needn't be so grand.
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don't.....I'll understand.

There was silence all around the throne
Where the saints had often trod.
As the trooper waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.

"Step forward now, Corporal,
You've borne your burdens well.
Come walk a beat on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in hell."
