Most of the time we take for granted the burglary and alarm calls due to so many false alarms. I know I have found myself finding them routine and not going to each one taking them with the consideration I should.

I wish the family very well, and good wishes.
I always hate to hear of an officer being killed in the line of duty because of some piece of trash. But we take the oath to protect, sometimes the extremes are met when doing so.

God bless you officer for giving the ultimate sacrifice to protect the people.

"Last Inspection"
The policeman stood and faced his God,
Which must always come to pass.
He hoped his shoes were shining.
Just as brightly as his brass.
"Step forward now, policeman.
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My Church have you been true?"
The Policeman squared his shoulders and said,
"No, Lord, I guess I ain't,
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 awfully tough.
But I never took a penny,
That wasn't mine to keep.
Though I worked a lot of overtime
when the bills got just 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 unmanly tears.
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 had often trod
As the policeman waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now, policeman,
You've borne your burdens well
Come walk a beat on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in Hell."

To Family and freinds,
We will keep you in our prayers. Why, may be your question for today, but tomorrow holds an answer. May God give you peace from heaven.
