Lord Jesus, as we watch our nation’s brave law enforcement officers succumb to the wicked and evil in this world, it becomes difficult for us to pick up and move forward. Our communities are on the brink of exploding with tension. In light of the law enforcement officers who are no longer with us, I pray for endurance for our communities and law enforcement agencies. Carry us through this time of strife, that through our struggles, our bonds may grow even more unbreakable. In Your mighty and holy name, I pray. Amen.

“And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” Then I said, “Here am I! Send me.” [Isaiah 6:8 ESV]

“Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.” [Psalm 23:4 ESV]

John 5:28, 29 - "Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out". I pray that everyone can find peace in knowing that we will see this officer as well as many others again in Paradise soon. Until then, please accept my condolences.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the third anniversary year of your death. Your memory lives and you continue to inspire. Thank you for your service. My cherished son Larry Lasater was a fellow police officer murdered in the line of duty on April 24, 2005 while serving as a Pittsburg, CA police officer.

I pray for solace and strength for everyone who misses and loves Sgt . Galvin. We will never forget the sacrifice made by each of the 9/11 heroes and their families.

Rest in Peace Sergeant Michael J. Galvin. Your dedication and bravery will live on forever. Thank You for responding like you did to the attack on America. I am sure you were responsible for saving and recovering many victims of this attack. The cancer that finally took your life is a scourge that will one day be wiped from the face of the earth. Doctors like Jonathan Salk who defeated polio are working diligently to kill this monster. GOD Bless You for your service. I salute You my fellow Law Enforcement Officer and am proud to have the same name as you .

First of all Rest in peace Sergeant Galvin. I'm humbled to leave the very first reflection for you and your honor and bravery. My father served in the 102nd precinct from 1928 until his retirement in 1966. Owen Davis was his name. You passed twelve years to the day my mother, Bernice passed. You were a credit to your department.
