End of Watch Wednesday, July 6, 2022.



Rest in Peace brother 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.

By Jon F. Hooper

The main job of an Officer is not to die in the line of duty but to go home at the end of the day to the family who loves him. Any time that an Officer falls in the Line it is a sad day for all Law Enforcement Officers. It is especially sad when it is the son, or daughter, of a Law Enforcement Officer. Our love and prayers go out to the family of this young officer and for the repose of his soul with our Heavenly Father as he now takes him place in line of the Honor Guard for our Lord. God Bless.

Officer Courts comes from great stock, his dad Larry was a fantastic DPD Supervisor, awesome man, and an excellent example to all. So his son Officer Courts did what he knew was in his blood police work. The citizens now need to stand up for law enforcement everywhere we risk it all for our communities. RIP my dear brother.

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.
