Thoughts and prayers for Deputy Derek Geer family, friends, and brothers and sisters in Law Enforcement and Veterans.
Deputy is dispatched to Heaven to light our path when it's our time to go. First Responders willingly put on their uniforms and strap on their gear to answer cries for help in every type weather and every day of the year. They go where Angels fear to tread.
Mesa County SO and the communities they cover lost a HERO and fearless leader with their loss of Deputy Derek Geer. It's time to rest Deputy Geer, we have the Watch.

On behalf of the Westerville, Ohio Division of Police, our thoughts and prayers are with the immediate family of Deputy Sheriff Derek Geer and the extended law enforcement family of the Mesa County Sheriff's Office, Colorado.
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.
By Jon F. Hooper

A brave deputy talking to a juvenile suspect was killed by that same suspect. I am sure the Shefiff and the rest of the Sheriff's Deputy mourn the loss of this deputy who was killed in the line of duty. For this juvenile, it means he will be tried in family court then sentenced to a juvenile facility in Colorado and then as he gets older, he will go to prison for what he did. My condolences go to the Messa County Sheriff's Department and the family of this deputy who was killed.

A sad day in Law Enforcement. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this sad time.
“ Policeman’s Prayer”
When I start my tour of duty God,
Wherever crime may be,
As I walk the darkened streets alone,
Let me be close to thee.
Please give me understanding with
Both the young and old.
Let me listen with attention
Until their story’s told..
Let me never make a judgment
In a rush or callous way,
But let me hold my patience
Let each man have his say
Lord if some dark and dreary night,
I must give my life,
Lord, with your everlasting love
Protect my children and my wife.
