Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

When God sent His angels to bring you home He had His reasons. Someday we will be able to ask why; but for now we offer our prayers for peace and comfort to those left behind. RIP Brother

Rest in peace Officer Greg Alia, both you and your family will always remain in our prayers. We saw you working tirelessly to make society a better place that was no to be. With tearful eyes we saw God take you to His loving home. Thus, God made your golden loving heart stop beating and hard working body rest. God broke our hearts to prove to both society and to us, he only takes the best.

On behalf of the Westerville, Ohio Division of Police, our thoughts and prayers are with the immediate family of Police Officer Greg Alia and the extended law enforcement family of the Forest Acres, South Carolina Police Department. Rest in Peace brother and watch over us.

I fight not for glory or fame, for they are momentary. I fight for those who can't. I fight for Justice. I fight for the oppressed and the down trodden. And if I should lose my life for these just causes, then I have no regrets, For I serve to protect the innocent. It matters not where or when, for evil knows no boundaries. Be it fire, flood, or the threat of tyranny, I will not flee. Justice is my weapon. Faith is my shield. Hope is my armor. Cry not at my passing, for it was my Honor to fight for you. Shed not tears of sorrow, But tears of joy, for now, I stand with God.

In this time of sorrow, a young mother and her newborn baby will be without a husband and a father. Officer Greg Alia was gunned down by a criminal who did not have any respect for the police at all. A city inn South Carolina mourns the loss of one of its police officers. The family and community will be mourning the loss of a police officer who was killed in the line of duty. For the criminal who did this, he will have a nice one way trip to death row in prison for what he did. I have seen my share of police officers, sheriff's deputies, state troopers/highway patrol officers, etc. killed by those who want to break the law and see a community and family mourn that loss. I am sure justice will be served and off to prison for the criminal who did this.

Police Officer Greg Alia:

Thank you for your 7 years of loyal and dedicated service to the citizens of Forest Acres, South Carolina and to the Forest Acres Police Department. "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called children of God" Matthew 5:9. Let us now celebrate your life and remember your selfless sacrifice in the Line-of-Duty. "Greater love has no one than this that someone lay down his life for his friends" John 15:13. However, death is not the end; it does not have the final say! And He [Jesus] said to him, "Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in Paradise" Luke 23:43. Now, my Brother in BLUE, rest easy; we will take it from here. "Well done, good and faithful servant" Matthew 25:11. May the Lord God bless you always!
