"innocent lives" being taken by Police is a huge issue these days. Yet, the sudden spike in POLICE LIVES being taken is almost ignored. The Police DO NOT run from bad guys, but towards them. The guilty run away.

Sergeant Tuozzolo, the vacancy you leave can never truly be filled. You are a friend, a parent, a son a husband. You did NOTHING wrong, and yet, your life was taken. You did not RUN away, but towards danger and died because of it.

God Bless you Brother, and may your eternal rest be ever peaceful. Those who know and love you best are in my heart.

Although we never met, you are my brother. I shed many tears for your wife, children, parents, family and friends. I feel the pain of their loss. I spoke today with a coworker who knew you well and it hit home how loved you were. I am sorry that your life was taken from us too soon, but I know that God has plans for you far and beyond what we can comprehend. Rest In Peace and know that you were chosen for a higher cause.

The Final Inspection
The policeman stood and faced his God,
Which must always come to pass.
He hoped his shoes were shining.
Just as brightly as his brass.
“Step forward now, policeman.
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My church have you been true?”
The policeman squared his shoulders and said,
“No, Lord, I guess I ain’t,
Because those of us who carry badges
can’t always be a saint.
I‘ve had to work most Sundays,
and at times my talk was rough,
and sometimes I’ve been violent,
Because the streets are awfully tough.
But I never took a penny,
That wasn’t mine to keep….
Though I worked a lot of overtime
When the bills got just too steep.
And I never passed a cry for help,
Though at times I shook with fear.
And sometimes, God forgive me,
I’ve wept unmanly tears.
I know I don’t deserve a place
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around
Except to calm their fear.
If you’ve a place for me here,
Lord, It needn’t be so grand.
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don’t…..I’ll understand.
There was silence all around the throne
Where the saints had often trod.
As the policeman waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.
“Step forward now, policeman,
You’ve borne your burdens well.
Come walk a beat on Heaven’s streets,
You’ve done your time in hell.”

Rest in peace brother

Police Poem written by Lt. Dan Marcou


They always knew they could be They never thought they would be God knows none ever should be Killed in the line of duty

Some made their final stand Their profession’s last demand They fell with gun in hand Killed in the line of duty

A routine to many a cop some made one final stop Someone’s Mom or Pop Killed in the line of duty

Others answered one last call To a robbery, theft, or brawl They arrived only to fall Killed in the line of duty

Some were dressed in brown, some blue Some in gray, and plain clothes too Some were dressed like me and you Killed in the line of duty

May their souls be forever blessed For they who are now at rest Died doing what they loved best Killed in the line of duty

Forgotten they never could be Forgotten they never should be Thought they never would be Killed in the line of duty

God bless all those who fell They are missed and loved so well Let us pray and toll the bell Those killed in the line of duty

Amen

A portion of a letter written by President Abraham Lincoln, printed in the Boston Evening Transcript on November 25, 1864.

“I feel how weak and fruitless must be any word of mine which should attempt to beguile you from the grief of a loss so overwhelming. But I cannot refrain from tendering you the consolation that may be found in the thanks of the Republic (he) died to save.
I pray that our Heavenly Father may assuage the anguish of your bereavement, and leave you only the cherished memory of the loved and lost, and the solemn pride that must be yours to have laid so costly a sacrifice upon the altar of freedom.
Yours, very sincerely and respectfully,
Abraham Lincoln”

The salvation of the righteous comes from the Lord;
he is their stronghold in time of trouble.
The Lord helps them and delivers them;
he delivers them from the wicked and saves them,
because they take refuge in him.
Psalm 37:39-40
Rest in peace brother.
