Danny Pags,
To reiterate your professional accomplishments would be redundant, for everyone knows what a dedicated cop you were. At one time we were good friends, but time spent together decreased over the years. That is my fault, and I am truly sorry. I think everybody who reads this should know that you were not just a good cop. You were a good and decent human being...who happened to be a police officer.

Police Officer’s Prayer


Heavenly Father, Almighty Commander of the Watch,
Watch over me and all those sworn to defend the public good.

Keep me focused on my mission to protect the citizenry of our fair city,
and zealous in my endeavor to pursue the criminal element, and assist those in need.

As I travel on dark streets and into alleys where the shadow of death resides,
Make my constitution strong, my courage deep, and unending.

Help me to maintain a strong body and a clean heart,
For I realize that having one without the other is begging failure.

Show me compassion, and channel Your goodness through me,
For I know there are those who need my help and understanding.

Allow me not to become hardened by the ways of the wicked,
But keep me in awe of Your works, and able to walk in wonderment upon this Earth.

Finally, Dear God, at the end of my watch, welcome me into Your arms with the love You hold in reserve for those that serve others.
May St. Michael walk with me to the gates of paradise, where St. Peter, Your Desk Sergeant, calls the roll. May he speak my name and pass me lovingly into the Kingdom of Heaven.

These things I ask, Father, and in your mercy,
grant me the strength to continue Your work,
for I know that You have saved a place for me,
and for all my brothers and sisters.

Amen

Godspeed Daniel
