My condolences to the family and friends of Lieutenant Aaron Allan. Losing a loved one is always difficult. Please take comfort in Jesus words found at John 5:28,29 where he said that there would be a resurrection. Just think of the time when you will see your loved ones again, in paradise conditions, here on earth. Once again, my condolences.

The animal lives after taking the life of the rescuer. This world is a mess.
My heart and my prayers are with all those who know and love Lieutenant Allan best. So long as you keep him forever in your hearts and minds, he'll never truly be gone and he will always watch over you.
Brother, God Bless and may you eternally Rest in Peace.

LT. Allan was a great guy! Back when I was in High School he was one of my School Officers. Almost everyday after school I would talk to all the officers Allan being one of them! Great memories and thank you for all you have done buddy! Rest In Peace Aaron Allan!

"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."

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.

There is often much outcry against "unjustified" shootings of civilians who are clearly resisting officers, yet you were ambushed while attempting to render aid to occupants of a vehicle crash and the media seems eerily silent. Though some may ask "Where are the protests on your behalf?", us members of the Thin Blue Line understand and accept the hazards of this fine profession, never seeking recognition or making excuses. Still, confusion and sadness weigh heavy on the shoulders of your friends, family, and fellow law enforcement officers around the nation. It is justice we will seek, yet only the peace of God can truly provide comfort in a time such as time. Thank you for your service, sir. May the Lord give your friends and family the strength to carry on and remember the time they shared with you.
