His Judgment Day:
The officer stood and faced his God, Which must always come to pass. He hoped his shoes were shinning, Just as brightly as his brass.
"Step forward now, Officer, How shall I deal with you? Have you always turned the other cheek To my church have you been true?"
The officer squared his shoulder and said, "No, Lord, I guess I aint, Because those of us who carry badges 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 tough.
But I never took a penny That wasn't mine to keep.. Though I worked a lot of overtime, when the bills got too steep.
And I never passed a cry for help Though at times I shook with fear. And sometimes, God forgive me, I've wept an unmanly tear.
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 silence all around the throne, where the saints often trod. As the officer waited quietly for the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now, Officer. You've borne your burdens well. Come walk a beat on heaven's streets, You've done your time in hell"

God full of mercy who dwells on high
Grant perfect rest on the wings of Your Divine Presence
In the lofty heights of the holy and pure
who shine as the brightness of the heavens
to the soul of Wilfredo Ramos-Nieves
who has gone to his eternal rest.

His resting place shall be in the Garden of Eden
Therefore; the Master of mercy will care for him
under the protection of His wings for all time
And bind his soul in the bond of everlasting life.
God is his inheritance and he will rest in peace
and let us say AMEN.

"Hoy mas que nunca brillare mi placa y mis escudos. Mi uniforme irradiara luz y esperanza. Mis botas nublaran la vista de quienes bajen su mirada rindiendo homenaje a los caidos. Hoy mas que nunca sentire orgullo propio y ajeno, llevare hidalguia, coraje y respeto por cada uno de los que se fueron, por cada huerfano de sangre azul, por cada viuda(o) desamparada(o). Hoy mas que nunca sere fiel a mi compromiso y no dejare que el miedo y las consecuencias ganadas por mi oposicion a lo que esta mal me empañen y me alejen de mi camino. Mi cabeza sera inclinada solo ante ti Señor, Dios Todopoderoso, pues a quien tiene la verdad como escudo no habra lanza que lo penetre. Y cuando el ruido de las salvas cese estare alli, de pie, en alto, rodeado por los mios, los que conmigo luchan, viven y mueren, los verdaderos heroes, los que no se quitan, los "Niños de Sangre Azul"
