Horrified yet again at the loss of another one of our own! May Officer Glasser rest in peace after giving everything to the City of Phoenix! I hope his wife and two children fight through the hard days ahead with their families from birth and Blue standing beside each other for support day in and day out. My heart goes out to one and all!

Officer Glasser,
Tears well up I my eyes as I think of your courage and selflessness. I spent most of last night and this morning praying for you to pull through. I now pray that God watches over your wife and your precious babies along with the rest of your family. Such a sad day. My husband just left for his 10 hr. Shift , and I pray he comes home safe. My heart hurts today . God will be with you and your family always. Rest in peace sweet hero.

Dear Lord, Law Enforcement is not an easy task to do, yet there are many who choose to wear the shield. They serve each day, to the oaths they swore are true, protecting and serving, a safer, better world to build. Lord, now we gather to pay our deepest honor, to one of ours, an officer, killed in the line of duty. It matters not the style of the shield they wore, only that they served with pride and honor. Lord, all that matters is that they were one of us, serving wherever needed, from rich mansion to dirty alleys. Confident and proud, highly honored by the peoples trust, so they carried a shield, mindful of all their sacred duties. Lord you have called one of us home to glory. The race with life for this one is now done. Peace, blessed peace in safety forever now with thee, welcome rest, now in heaven for all of eternity. May those of us still serving remember well the price they paid, may their memory stand forever as one who went down brave. May time never erase the sacrifice that was made, may no officer ever fall alone, to lie cold in their grave. Lord give us the courage to carry on, to still live and care, to not be vengeful or bitter, to simply trust your word is true. May we always cover with pride the shield we wear, to honor all fallen officers whom we now commend to you.
