Reflections for Corporal Jacai David Colson
Thank you for your sacrifice brother. Rest in peace. Prayers to your family, you were far too young for us to understand. Only God knows why you were taken. You ran toward the gunfire brother. You are a HERO.

In the air and on the ground, atop of peaks and in the deeps, we serve to protect others in need by our deeds. And when we pay the price, our brothers and sisters stop twice. Once to shead a tear and once to comfort those who are near. We are not heros in our own eyes, just hard working in our demise. And to those of you who are gone, we silently sing this song, “You may be gone... but will NEVER be forgotten.” R.I.P.

May you rest in peace Officer Colson. May your family and your department receive the love and support that is needed during this difficult time.
"The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee."

On behalf of the Westerville, Ohio Division of Police, our thoughts and prayers are with the immediate family of Police Officer Jacai Colson and the extended law enforcement family of the Prince George's County (Maryland) Police Department.
End of Watch: Sunday, March 13th, 2016.
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
