Reflections for Police Officer Sheena Dae Yarbrough-Powell
I never knew Officer Powell, but I have a tremendous respect for anyone who does this job usually at great risk to their own lives and yet, they still do this job day in and day out. So, let me just say, that my most sincere thanks and respect for the job you did while you were with us here in Texas. Your life here is at a close, but what you leave behind, your legacy remains to this day.
Rest in Peace Officer Powell

Miss you Ofc. Hopps. Miss you everyday in the southend. I know you hated that nick name. But, if you knew the compliment it came with. I know you are living the best heavenly life and watching over us. RIP Hopps.

Happy first heavenly birthday work daughter. You haven’t been gone all that long but it feels like forever. I know you are having a much better time than we are down here. I will continue to do my best to keep the promise I made to you.

Rest in Peace sister and watch over us. We will protect and serve from here on in your honor.
I fight not for glory or fame, for they are momentary. I fight for those who can't. I fight for Justice. I fight for the oppressed and the down trodden. And if I should lose my life for these just causes, then I have no regrets, For I serve to protect the innocent. It matters not where or when, for evil knows no boundaries. Be it fire, flood, or the threat of tyranny, I will not flee. Justice is my weapon. Faith is my shield. Hope is my armor. Cry not at my passing, for it was my Honor to fight for you. Shed not tears of sorrow, But tears of joy, for now, I stand with God.

The true measure of a person
is not found in the
might of their arm,
their wealth
or their power –
it is found in the strength
of their character.
There is no greater testimony to
ones character, than ones
willingness to sacrifice all,
in the noble quest of
providing protection to all
whom they serve.
