On behalf of the men and women who serve with the Georgia Perimeter College Police Department, our thoughts and prayers are with Officer Roy Nelson's family, friends, and co-workers with the New Smyrna Beach Police Department. May both you and your K-9 Ceaser rest in peace. Now the two of you can walk Heaven's beat.

I, along with many others grieve in the loss of Police officer Roy Nelson and Caeser. Often I have been asked, "are there animals in heaven" and I would have to say "yes, there are." The Bible mentions horses and I believe that Officer Nelson has Caesar by his side. I only know that the family, relatives, and friends of Police Officer Nelson will miss him, and I pray for all of you to seek comfort in the Lord, which I know that He will give.

“REMEMBER ME”
Law enforcement officers are, indeed, a special breed of people. Ask anyone on the street and they will tell you that they would not have our jobs for anything in the world. It takes something special to do what we do and at the same time be able to even contemplate retirement. We try to be optimists. Unfortunately, there are a few of us who will never make that date with retirement. By the very nature of our job, we are at risk everyday of losing our lives, either at the hand of some deranged individual or in some other situation that we, by virtue of our occupation, may be unable to avoid. Some people have recognized the hazardous duties we involve ourselves in, the risks we take, and the pride we take in accomplishing that job. There is National Law Enforcement Week, dedicated to us who gladly accept the responsibility of protecting the citizens in our respective jurisdictions. National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Day is dedicated to those who gave their lives in the line of duty. These are but a two examples of remembrances specifically for law enforcement personnel. Remembrances that come but once a year. We should remind fellow officers of another type of remembrance, one that will last a lifetime. Sooner or later, a doctor will pronounce us dead. It is inevitable. Regardless of whatever happens, death is the end we will all have to face.
