I just read your story and I don't know why but I felt a connection to you. Maybe because,like you, I also have a daughter or maybe because we started our Law Enforcement careers around the same time....
I feel a deep pain in my heart thinking of what your family must be going through.
To the Manor Family, know that Officer James Manor is a hero to all us!
Thank you for your sacrifice! I pray for you and your family, may God rest your soul.
Rest in Peace Tpr. Ellery Collado Florida Highway Patrol 2009-09-26

To Officer James Manor, his family members and friends who call him beloved, and to his law enforcement family:
I was sorry to learn of James' death and extend my sincerest condolences on the grievous loss you have suffered. Words are insufficient to describe the sadness I feel for the Manor family. May you find comfort in your faith and the support of the law enforcement community.
There are many police survivors who share this same journey with you, and that community will be there to support you. James' memory will be forever honored and revered.
This reflection is sent with the utmost respect for the distinquished service James gave to his community and the citizens of Nevada and for the supreme sacrifice he and his family made on May 7, 2009.

Dear Officer Manor,
I thank you for making the ultimate sacrafice so that my Family and I can remain safe while the City continues to hate our kind more and more every day. While others critisized you, I remained defensive in your position due to the fact that you were not around to defend yourself. You were enroute to defend others in hopes of preventing harm upon them and I thank you for what you did. Your are truley a hero in my eyes, and in the eyes of others no matter how much the negativity may silence those who love and thank you.
Officer Manor, I pray that you are rewarded in the Kingdom of Heaven to which you more than earned, and deserve. Your Watch may be over, but I know in my heart that you are continuing to watch over us and your daughter that you left behind so suddenly.
God speed, and Rest In Peace Officer Manor. In Jesus name I pray, Amen. Cameron Seisan, Correctional Officer Nevada Department of Corrections 2009-08-21
Chief Dean Strzelecki and the entire Niles Police Department send our deepest condolences to the family, friends and colleagues of Officer Manor. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Godspeed. Niles, Illinois Police Department

"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.
