Knowing you were there before me gives me a more sadder feeling, knowing what you felt that day.

Peace to you and yours always.

You helped make the world a better place for us and we can't thank you enough. Go with God, watch over us, and help us to find the path home. We will pray for you and your family and we need you to pray for us.

The policeman stood and faced God,
Which must always come to pass.
He hoped his shoes were shining,
Just as brightly as his brass.

"Step forward now, policeman.
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To my church have you been true?"

The policeman squared his shoulders and said,
"No lord, I guess I ain't,
Because those of us who carry a badge
can't always be a saint."

I've had to work most Sundays,
and at times my talk was rough,
and sometimes I've been violent,
Because the streets are awfully tough.

But I never took a penny,
That wasn't mine to keep
Though I worked a lot of overtime
When the bills got just too steep.

And I never passed a cry for help,
Though at time I shook with fear.
And sometimes, God forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.

I know I don't deserve a place
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around
Except to calm their fear.

If you've a place for me here, Lord,
It needn't be so grand.
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don't I'll understand.

There was a silence all around the throne
Where the saints had often trod.
As the policeman waited quietly,
For the judgement of his god.

"Step forward now, policeman,
You've born your burdens well.
Come walk a beat on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in hell"

As another veterans day quickly approaches I could not leave your reflections page blank. I am sorry you had to die over there. I am sorry an American had to. Because of your sacrifice and the all of other veterans that sacrificed there lives we live in a better place. Thank you for service. Your country will never forget you.
