I have laid down my life in service to all of you.
I have been a part of the fabric that has held the line between your safety and your victimization. I have given my life so that others may live in peace. I have lived my life as a dedicated member of the greatest profession. There is no greater honor.

As I now become a part of the rich history of law enforcement, please remember me always for I have left behind those who loved and depended upon me.
My partners and my agency, please remember my family, their loss, and don’t let time soften your compassion for them.

You guard the gate now and I will continue my watch from above.

MAY YOU REST IN PEACE AND MAY YOUR FAMILY FIND COMFORT IN THE GOOD YOU HAVE DONE HERE ON EARTH.

To:The family;loved ones;friends and department members: A POLICE OFFICER'S PRAYER:--- O,gentle Lord. Keep the day/night watch with me. As I begin my tour of duty, I ask your protection from all mental,physical and spiritual harm. Sustain me with the knowledge that I am doing your work,endeavoring to keep peace among your people. Help me to be just as I enforce the law without prejudice or favor to anyone. May I be courageous but not reckless in carrying out my duties. Let me respond to all calls with haste realizing that so many are dependent upon me for life and safety. Support me with your consoling power when I am tempted to think no one really cares and that I am taken for granted. Sustain in me the conviction that so many thousands do care and are grateful for my presence. Grant that I may be loyal to my partner and my fellow officers, and that I may back them up effectively when called upon for assistance. Lord,I ask that I may return safely,after my tour of duty,to my loved ones and those who love me. I pray that I may be a good and honorable police officer;and after my tour of duty is over here on earth,may I enjoy the peace and happiness of heaven that you have promised to those who serve you well.AMEN. *** REST IN PEACE*** Sent to you by the father of S.A J.D.Koeppen, and Trooper D.C.Koeppen , N.J.State Police(ret) and Ptl.Adam M.Koeppen Toms River NJ PD.

On behalf of my family, I extend our sincerest condolences on the grievous loss you suffered when Michael was killed.

To the Naylor family, fellow deputies, and all who call Michael beloved, my heart goes out to all of you and may you find comfort in your loved ones and your strength in your faith. When my son was killed, the entire law enforcement community in our area embraced us in a circle of love and support, and I know you will receive the same support. It makes the unbearable less torturous, and I pray for your solace.


This reflection is sent with the utmost respect for the dedicated service Sgt. Naylor gave to his community and the citizens of Texas , and for the supreme sacrifice he and his family made on October 9, 2014.

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.

For Sergeant Michael Naylor:

The duties of the law-officer are many, but one of the most dangerous situations is confronting another person with a gun. No amount of training or experience prepares the law-officer for the unstable individual who in a fraction of a second will kill. Far too many law-officers who tried to make an arrest peaceably has left themselves open to extreme danger attempting to avoid violence and paid for it with losing his life. We regret that our brother Michael would be the next law-officer to be murdered by a deranged and crazed individual.
We pray for Michael's family, co-workers, friends and those who care about him. May they be ready to reach-out to one another in the days ahead.
We are proud to render Sergeant Michael Naylor, a brave and noble soldier-of-the-law, a final salute.
