Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

I have just completed a reflection for the first officer killed on Jan.
17th,another officer dies the same day due to being shot and killed
It is with a heavy heart that I write another reflection for another
police officer killed,only because he was a police officer.
All officers and law enforcement need to be on the alert every
minute of the day,every interaction encountered, I hope this stops
today.
God bless this officers family-another hero taken.

God, filled with mercy, dwelling in the heavens' heights,
bring proper rest beneath the wings of your Lord,
amid the ranks of the holy and the pure,
illuminating like the brilliance of the skies the soul of Thomas Cottrell who went to his eternal place of rest.
May You who are the source of mercy shelter him beneath Your wings eternally,
and bind his soul among the living, that he may rest in peace. And let us say: Amen.
