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.

This saddens me so much I can't even think of the words to say. I am so tired of hearing about my brothers and sisters in blue being killed in the line of duty. We as a family in law enforcement have lost too many brothers and sisters. This has got to stop. I pray for justice to be served and I pray for his family as they go through this hard time. Thank you for your service Sergeant Shawn T. Anderson. You will be missed but not forgotten because we know you are flying high in heaven above where you will never have to worry about pain or suffering ever again.

"The Thin Blue Line"

There is a line
the color of the sky
on a clear afternoon

There is a line
the hue of the ocean
on a bright sunny day

There is a line
the purest shade of a newborn's eyes
awakening for the first time

There is a line
that protects us from harm
in all we do
whether day or night

There is a line
no one can penetrate
no one can alleviate

There is a line
made of those who choose
to follow a calling many do not hear
and still more do not comprehend

They choose to walk
the path of fear, hate, and mistrust
taken by so few
but marked by so many

And when one leaves this line
they leave a legacy
but the line does not break
for the remaining must still protect

There may be emptiness
a loss, or sadness
but never a hole
not in this line

This line that holds
the ghosts of the souls who have gone
and the souls of the ghosts who will be
The Thin Blue Line

Kimberly A. Erb

Thank you for you service and the sacrifice that you have given to help save the community from the Evil that we do not see everyday. Sergeant Anderson 10-7, EOS, Goodnight.

Never Forget the Ultimate Sacrifice. Always remember and always Thank our Brothers and Sisters in uniform.
