Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Having just been on the receiving end of assistance from your brothers in the Gang Intelligence Section, it was with great sadness we learned of your murder. I pray for loving support and strength to surround your family, friends and co-workers as they deal with their grief. There is a better place than this reserved for fallen heros and you are now there.

My deepest sympathies to the Taylor families. I am a sister of an CPD officer killed in the line of duty and know all too well the flood of emotions you are experiencing.

I hope you take comfort in knowing that his sacrifice was not in vain. He was doing a job he loved, certainly not for the paycheck, rather for the sake of making the city a better place for his family.

He is and always will be a HERO!

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say.

But first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from Heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; Here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I am with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through
God picked me up and hugged me and he said,'I welcome you.
It's good to have you back again, you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, They'll be here later on.
I need you here badly, you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.'
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night the days chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....In the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years.
Because you are only human they are bound to bring tears.
But do not be afraid to cry: it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
If I were to tell you, you would not understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is over.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you, and many hills to climb;
But together we can do it by taking one step at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you to;
That as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain;
Then you can say to God at night...."My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented...that my life was worthwhile.
Knowing as I passed along the way I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low:
Just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go...from that body to be free.
Remember you're not going...you're coming here to me.
I will always be with you!
GOD BLESS YOU ALL

To Officer Nate family and friends;
What a shame to lose someone you love too soon. It is a true tragedy that Officer Taylor was doing his job to protect the streets and his life was taken. Sometimes we can never understand God's logic in situations like this, but just know that God had a much bigger job for Officer Taylor. I hope that justice will prevail and that God will wrap his arms around all of your hearts as you mourn the loss of a great person. We all should be thankful for people like Mr. Taylor who risk their lives to make this world a better place.

I AM A WARRIOR
by Jon F. Hooper

I stand with God. I fight not for glory or fame,
For they are momentary.
I fight for those who can't.
I fight for Justice.
I fight for the oppressed and the down trodden.
And if I should lose my life for these just causes, then I have no regrets,
For I serve to protect the innocent.
It matters not where or when,
For evil knows no boundaries.
Be it fire, flood, or the threat of tyranny,
I will not flee.
Justice is my weapon.
Faith is my shield.
Hope is my armor.
Cry not at my passing,
For it was my Honor to fight for you.
Shed not tears of sorrow,
But tears of joy,
For now,
I stand with God.

Thank-you, Officer Taylor for your brave service and ultimate sacrifice. May the Good Lord watch over and hold your family close in the palm of his hand, these next dark days.
