Uncle John, I was thinking of you today. You have many of your siblings with you in Heaven. Your sister Rita loved you very much. I will always remember you and your wife caring for us while my dad was in Korea and my mom was having my sister Becky. I also remember visiting you and my cousins. Rest in Peace.

i remember that when we moved to the small town of pierce city,mo from riverside, ca. Most of my family is from there and my youngest daughter was born there, but we moved back to ca, when we were in pierce city, and i might add judged rather harshly, Officer Dacy " Jim" as he told our family to call him, he lived behind us in town, anyway he was very kind to us and made us all feel very welcomed. we miss him,and i know the whole town of pierce city also misses his kindness and fairness. Jim you are missed. but not forgotten

"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.
