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]

I was not aware Jimmy passed. He was a great guy... friendly... caring. I worked with him at Defense Logistics Agency. He was stationed in Germany for our Eastern Region Team. All the commanders there loved him. I lost touch with him after I left DLA in 2012. Until I see you again, Brother.

Detective James Giery was my Company Commander 84-72. As I remember I think Jim was age 34 when he went through the Academy with Me he came from another Department. I winded up going to a NJ Dept, but i would see Jimmy occasionally at police funerals. Jimmy was a great Cop and a great Human Being, and i will alway's be so thankful for his extra assistance to Me in the Academy. Jimmy was in the Housing PD.

One of the many amazing men and women who gave so selflessly and heroically that day and the many days that followed. Rest in peace always and know that your service and sacrifice will never, ever be forgotten by your law enforcement brethren.
