On the 45th anniversary of your passing, we still mourn.
Please provide aerial support for us all.

Trooper Gillespie, as the wife of a retired Trooper I am always amazed at the people who completely ignore the lights and sirens of not only police officers, but also fire trucks and ambulances. Apparently if you are not on the way to assist them, then their attitude is that you can wait for them to get where they are going.
Thank you for your service. Please continue to watch over your family. Michelle - wife of Retired LEO

Our Greatest Fear
Yet once again the Thin Blue Line is diminished,
an officer’s final tour of duty is finished.
"Officer down", it’s our greatest fear,
and once again, I hold back a tear.
They patrol in the state, city, county and town,
in uniforms colored white, green, blue and brown.
The shape of their badges may vary,
but it’s a symbol that they all, proudly carry.
They leave for work with a kiss goodbye,
but some don’t come home, no matter how hard they try.
To uphold the law is the job that they pick,
with such high aspirations, why must some die so quick?
They leave behind loved ones, family and friends,
after their lives have met tragic ends.
Some die in crashes, others hearts not too stout,
too many have been lost when gunshots ring out.
Our Heavenly Father has called them home,
no more these dark streets do they roam.
Through trial and error they have given their best,
please Lord, now grant them eternal rest.
Yet once again the Thin Blue Line is diminished,
an officer’s final tour of duty is finished.
" Officer down", it’s our greatest fear,
and once again I hold back a tear.
