A Prayer for Sergeant Kenneth Steil:
Lord God, you are always faithful and quick to show mercy. Our Brother-in-Blue, Sergeant Kenneth Steil, of the Detroit, Michigan Police Department was taken from us suddenly and violently in the Line-of-Duty. Come swiftly to his aid, have mercy on him, and comfort his family, friends, and colleagues by the power and protection of the Cross. Heavenly Father, as we mourn the death of our Brother-in-Blue, Sergeant Kenneth Steil show us the immense power of your goodness and strengthen our belief that he has entered into Your presence. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
"For the policeman does not frighten people who are doing right; but those doing evil will always fear him. So if you don't want to be afraid, keep the laws and you will get along well. The policeman is sent by God to help you. But if you are doing something wrong, of course you should be afraid, for he will have you punished. He is sent by God for that very purpose. Obey the laws, then, for two reasons: first, to keep from being punished, and second, just because you know you should." [Romans 13:3-5 TLB]
“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called children of God.” [Matthew 5:9 ESV]
“Greater love has no one than this that someone lay down his life for his friends.” [John 15:13 ESV]

Avenue of the Fallen
Standing at attention in their class “A“uniforms, badges gleaming and shoes like glass, are your brothers and sisters of Law Enforcement. All of whom have previously paid the ultimate price.
Today, like many others, they welcome you to this wonderful place.
As you march down the Avenue of the Fallen, all eyes focus on you as if to say “it’s OK, you’re with your eternal partners.”
A salute is followed and a tear can be seen on so many faces.
Welcome, you served well.
Now come join us in the ranks, another is coming home.

One of my coworkers told me of your passing. I could see the hurt in his eyes, I then talked to another coworker and I could see the pain in his eyes also. They had both worked with you at DPD. I never met you but you were my brother. I know what kind of person you were based on their reactions to your passing. RIP Sgt, we have the watch now.
