To the family and friends of Officer Andrew. He had chosen a career that is so needed and worthy, despite the evil people that it must serve. I am so very sorry for the loss of his life that he was dedicated to.
Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he WILL RECEIVE THE CROWN OF LIFE, that GOD has promised to those who Love Him.
