George I think of you so often. You and I worked together a lot of times as partners. I think of the p.e.i. school we attended together and we got to be the two who got to sling down a few and then we were tested by the class. They had to carry you and I home and we sang all the way. I remember your wife and your two children and how wonderful they were and how proud you were of them. I miss you buddy and always will. You were a great officer and made us all proud. Rest Brother.

God didn’t promise days without pain, laughter without sorrow, sun without rain; but He did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears and light for the way.


Rest in peace.

"The Badge"
He starts his shift each day
To respond to calls unknown.
He drives a marked patrol car.
A police officer he is known.
He's paid by the citizens' taxes
To make it safe on the streets.
But he usually has a second job
'Cause a waitress has his salary beat.
Now he doesn't know a holiday
'Cause he works all year round.
And when Thanksgiving and Christmas finally arrive
At his home he cannot be found.
He's cursed and assaulted often,
The one whos blood runs blue.
He seldom ever gets a thanks,
To some he's just a fool.
His friends are always other cops
'Cause people just don't understand
That underneath his badge and gun,
He's just another man.
He knows there might not be a tomorrow
In this world of drugs and crime.
And he gets so mad at the court system
'Cause the crooks don't get any time.
And each day when he leaves for work,
He prays to God above.
Please bring me home after my shift
So I can see the ones I love.
But tonight he stops a speeding car,
He's alone down this ole' highway.
It's just a little traffic infraction.
He does it everyday.
Well, he walks up to the driver's window,
And his badge is shining bright.
He asked the guy for a driver's license,
When a shot rang through the night.
Yes, the bullet hit its mark,
Striking the officer in the chest.
But the Department's budget didn't buy
Each officer a bullet-proof vest.
So he lay on the ground bleeding.
His blood wasn't blue - His blood was red.
And briefly he thought of his loved ones
'Cause in a moment the officer was dead.
In the news they told the story
Of how this officer had died.
And some who listened cared less,
But those who loved him cried.
Well, they buried him in uniform
With his badge pinned on his chest.
He even had his revolver,
He died doing his best.

With the anniversary of his death just passed, we pause to honor and remember one of our own, Officer George W. McGaughey. He made the ultimate sacrifice serving and protecting our citizens and he will never be forgotten.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to all of his surviving family members. May God comfort and keep you.



To the McGauhey family: Please forgive our late post. Many times our intentions are good but other duties and responsibilities of life keep us from doing what we desire.

Rest in Peace, Officer McGaughey. Your sacrifice is not forgotten.

Officer 11169

I was working the day the call came out--"officer down"
I raced to the scene and along with several fellow officers
found George shot and another officer also wounded.
Officer McDonald would survive. George passed away.
I also assisted in arresting his shooter a few blocks away.

Ironically, I was then assigned to go to George's house
to notify his family of the event. God that was so hard-
there were small children--just like at my house.

More Ironically, several years later--after I had left police work---I had the honor to teach George's son in
the 9th grade. The little boy I saw that dreaded night
had grown into a fine young man and I know George would
be proud.

A fine officer, a fine husband, a fine dad---I saw the
proof of this and it is a great testimony to George.

Rest in Peace---Job well done!
