IN LOVING MEMORY

Although an International boundary seperated us and we had never met you were my Brother, my family!!
As soon as you put on the uniform, pinned on the badge, and swore the oath you became part of the largest and most loving
families in the world..the Thin Blue Line family... and you will be forever remembered and loved as long as I draw breath.
And you can rest peacefully my Brother as we are watching over your loved ones, your friends, your co-workers, because that is what family does....we look out for each other...
We are here to take up the fight that you so dearly loved and we shall all make you proud...
You fought the good fight with dignity, pride and honor, and that is the making of a true hero, a brother, a loved one...
And I'm not ashamed to say that I will shed a tear when your name is mentioned..as you are my beloved Brother and I miss you..
And what gives me the courage to go on is knowing that when my time comes you will be waiting for me with open arms in
the roll call room above and say, "Welcome Brother..I have saved a place at St. Micheals table for you, and now we can catch up
on what I have missed"....
Sleep peacefully Blue Angel as you have earned your rest....and I and every LEO worldwide love you, miss you, and shall never ever forget you.......
You are loved now and forever by your Thin Blue Line family..you always will be..
Rest my Brother..you have earned it....
I love you..... I miss you....
Your Brother in Blue.....
Tom

Rest in Peace Brother knowing you are loved..and never forgotten....
