On behalf of my family, I extend our sincerest condolences on the grievous loss you suffered when Dennis died as a result of an illness he suffered in the line of duty in 2001 during the aftermath of 9/11.

To the McCarthy family, fellow special agents, and all who call Dennis beloved, my heart goes out to all of you and may you find comfort in your loved ones and your strength in your faith. When my son was killed, the entire law enforcement community in our area embraced us in a circle of love and support. I hope that you continue to receive that same kind of support. It makes the unbearable less torturous, and I pray for your solace.

This reflection is sent with the utmost respect for the dedicated service Special Agent McCarthy gave to his community and the citizens of our country and for the supreme sacrifice he and his family made on October 27, 2018. We shall never forget any of our 9/11 heroes and I hope you and your family know that a grateful nation mourned for you. Semper Fi

I knew Dennis McCarthy through his loyalty to his brother's memory and his annual memorial run. Dennis McCarthy not only succeeded in erecting a granite monument on Kings Highway Brooklyn to his brother, Eugene McCarthy, a fallen Marine Corps pilot in the first Gulf War as well as a DEA agent, but he also established an annual Memorial Run through Nazareth High School from which both brothers graduated. Now this annual memorial run will honor both brothers. The McCarthy brothers were all about loyalty to this nation through their service. Semper Fidelis.

So sorry that you’ve lost your life, but you are a hero to so many people. Thank you for your 31 years of service to protect and defend the citizens of our country that you don’t probably even know but you did it because you’re a warrior. I know God has granted you eternity in heaven, so enjoy it with Jesus and all your family and friends. Thank you so much for Caring.

My heart goes out to this officer's friends, family, and department. I hope that everyone can find comfort in Revelation 21:4 "And he (God) will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away". One day, we'll be able to welcome back our loved ones that we've lost to death and never have to lose them again. Until then, my sincerest condolences goes out to everyone that knew this brave officer.

Every morning I go to my knees. During that time I pray Psalm 91 over all LEO’s and this prayer also:

“Lord, Be with all law enforcement officers. Keep them safe and free from harm. They are Your soldiers on the front line of the battle against evil. If one should fall this day - wrap their family in your loving arms. Surround them with Your angels, loving family, friends, neighbors and caring people to comfort them. Ease their pain. Help them to mourn well. In Jesus' name and for Your Glory, Amen.”

I know that God sends those angels to watch over our officers, sometimes to protect them and sometimes to whisk our officers into His presence.

Feel His presence as God answers the prayers of many who have fallen to their knees on your behalf. Since the day of my son's death, I have carried every law enforcement officer and their family in my heart.

I have lifted your family to God every morning for over seven years. I pray that Dennis' life and death will bring glory to God.

Trust those prayers. God is with you; He knows and will ease your pain.

Our faith helps us to see beyond the grave.

"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."
