We know that you are with the Lord Almighty and that means you are only a prayer away from us...Amen

“One isn't necessarily born with courage, but one is born with potential. Without courage, we cannot practice any other virtue with consistency. We can't be kind, true, merciful, generous, or honest.” author: Maya Angelou

Officer Buro displayed incredible courage. I am humbled and grateful for his service.

Our loss is heavens gain... rest in peace.

TO FAMILY/FRIENDS/CO-WORKERS

Blessed are they who give
without expecting even thanks in return,
for they shall be abundantly rewarded.

Blessed are they who translate
every good thing they know into action,
for ever higher truths shall be revealed unto them.

Blessed are they who do God's will
without asking to see results,
for great shall be their recompense.

Blessed are they who love and trust their fellow beings,
for they shall reach the good in people and
receive a loving response.

Blessed are they who have seen reality, for they know
that not the garment of clay but that which activates
the garment of clay is real and indestructible.

Blessed are they who see the change we call death
as a liberation from the limitation of this earth-life,
for they shall rejoice with their loved ones
who make the glorious transition.

Blessed are they who after dedicating their lives
and thereby receiving a blessing, have the courage and faith
to surmount the difficulties of the path ahead,
for they shall receive a second blessing.

Blessed are they who advance toward the spiritual path
without the selfish motive of seeking inner peace,
for they shall find it.

Blessed are they who instead of trying to
batter down the gates of the kingdom of heaven
approach them humbly and lovingly and purified,
for they shall pass right through.

Officer Buro,

May you rest in peace tonight after many years of faithful and dedicated service. You are a true hero, who will be missed by many and forgotten by none.

What do I think of when I hear your name? I think of a man who was an awesome Marine, outstanding cop, and even a better friend. A man who served his country with dedication during Desert Storm and later served the citizens of Lantana, New York City, and later Chesterfield County with that same dedication. It was an honor to serve with you for three years in the Marine Corps and continue to be your friend after we both had gotten discharged. You were an inspiration to me and many others with your "laid back" personality and your ability to always, no matter what, to have a smile. All who knew you are in pain right now but that will soon fade away in time. Just remember this Gary, my brother, you will NEVER EVER be forgotten. Love you Bro.

Gary - though I never got the chance to meet you I was devastated when I heard the news of your passing. Even though your passing is a huge loss to the dept, it is an even bigger gain to Heaven. I am a girlfriend of a Police Officer, and I now hug him tighter when he leaves for work. Please watch over your brothers down here and help keep them safe. God bless your family and co-workers.
