Policeman's Prayer to St. Michael
St. Michael, Heaven's glorious Commissioner of Police, who once so neatly and successfully cleared God's premises of all its undesirables, look with kindly and professional eye on your earthly force.

Give us cool heads, stout hearts, hard punches, an uncanny flair for investigation and wise judgement.

Make us the terror of burglars, the friend of children and law-abiding citizens, kind to strangers, polite to bores, strict with law breakers and impervious to temptations.

You know, St. Michael, from your own experiences with the devil that the policeman's lot on earth is not always a happy one; but your sense of duty that so pleased God, your hard knocks that so suprised the devil, and your angelic self-control give us your inspiration.

And when we lay down our night sticks, enroll us in your Heavenly Force, where we will be as proud to guard the throne of God, as we have been the city of men. Amen.

Eric,

Thank you for befriending my daughter. I felt a lot better knowing that a police officer was watching over her home. I only met you once, but I feel blessed that I did and that you were in my daughter's life, if only for a brief time.

I can only imagine the loss your family is enduring. I know you are with Jesus and whole again, but I will continue to pray for your family and friends.

Thank you for having the courage to go out in the streets to protect us all!

Dear Mrs. Solorio,
I am deeply sorry to hear that you have lost Eric. I lost my loving husband, Officer James Knapp (Cook County Sheriff) on 04 Jan.06. He died in a fatal car crash on duty. I can truly say that I understand your pain. I will be praying for you daily. I can be reached through the Cook County Sheriff's Department if you ever need a sympathetic shoulder.

Senora Amelia, que Dios le bendiga para siempre.

Dear Eric,

I know that you are with the Lord now. I lost my beloved husband, Officer James Knapp (Cook Co.Sheriff) on 04 Jan.06. He died in a fatal car crash on duty. I imagine that Jim welcomed you to your first roll call in Heaven. Thank you for serving Eric, even though it was for much too short a time. I am sure that you were loved by so many and will be missed so much. God bless you always.

It seems like it was just yesterday Eric and I decided to partner up. We made a lot of great arrests in our year and half together in the 006th district. I shared many laughs and mememorable moments with Eric on this job.

A day will never go by in my life, that I won't think about you Eric.I know you're in a better place now, but I miss you....until we meet again partner.
