Reflections for Trooper Edward T. Kiluk
Heavenly Father, You are always faithful and quick to show mercy. Our Brother-in-Blue, Trooper Edward T. Kiluk, of the New York State Police, was eventually taken from us; Exposed to the Deadly Toxins emitted at the New York City 9/11/2001 Terrorist Attack Site in the Line-of-Duty. Come swiftly to his aid, have mercy on him, and comfort his family, friends, and colleagues by the power and protection of the cross. I ask this through Jesus Christ our Lord, and by His authority. Amen.
God's Mission for America's Peace Officers:
"For the policeman does not frighten people who are doing right; but those doing evil will always fear him. So if you don't want to be afraid, keep the laws and you will get along well. The policeman is sent by God to help you. But if you are doing something wrong, of course you should be afraid, for he will have you punished. He is sent by God for that very purpose." (Romans 13: 3-4 TLB)
God's Word of Support, Comfort, and Hope:
"Blessed are those who make peace. They will be called God's children."
(Matthew 5:9 GW);
"Then I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, "Whom will I send? Who will go for us?" I said, "Here I am. Send me!" (Isaiah 6:8 GW);
"The greatest love you can show is to give your life for your friends."
(John 15:13 GW), and;
"Blessed are those who mourn. They will be comforted." (Matthew 5:4 GW).

RIP Trooper Ed Kiluk Hard to believe three has gone by, since Ed’s passing. Trooper Kiluk and I roomed together at the New York State Fair detail for years. He liked engaging in cards with the young Troopers during his off-duty time at the fair. Great guy to be around and a real jokester. He is truly missed.
