Avenue of the Fallen
Standing at attention in their class “A “uniforms, badges gleaming and shoes like glass, are your brothers and sisters of Law Enforcement. All of whom have previously paid the ultimate price.
Today, like many others, they welcome you to this wonderful place.
As you march down the Avenue of the Fallen, all eyes focus on you as if to say “it’s OK, you’re with your eternal partners.”
A salute is followed and a tear can be seen on so many faces.
Welcome, you served well.
Now come join us in the ranks, another is coming home.

A Prayer for Deputy Sheriff Robert Rumfelt:

Lord God of Mercy, Peace, and Love, we remember before Your throne in this moment our Brother-in-Blue, Deputy Sheriff Robert Rumfelt, of the Lake County, California Sheriff's Office, who sacrificed his life in the Line-of-Duty. We recall with gratitude and respect all that he stood for in this life. Help us to live in the companionship of his spirit. May we be kind to the family, friends, and colleagues he loved; devoted to the county, and state in which he served; and loyal to the causes which he championed in law enforcement. Thus, in our life, may he live on, to our great comfort, to the betterment of Your creation, and to the furthering of Your most Holy Will. Almighty God, we ask that you grant us a deeper appreciation of the efforts of all police officers who serve our communities, counties and states daily. For their dedication to our security, order and peace, we give You thanks. May they be encouraged in their work which benefits us all. Help us to grow that spirit of community that will make their job both easy and fulfilling. And now may our fellowship together and Your blessing today bring a renewed sense of joy to each of us. Amen.

Rest In Peace Rob, may the lord welcome you into heaven with open arms. You are a true American Hero. You were a really stand up guy and such a great person to be around. I was so saddened to hear of your passing. You taught me a lot about Officer safely and told me many fun stories of patrolling back in the day in Lakeport as well as your time overseas. I can't believe I just saw you last month at AR15 armorer class and how the instructor told you that you needed a new and better rifle. You will truly be missed my friend. It was such an honor to have known you and learned from you. Please watch over us. You will never be forgotten buddy.
