His Judgment Day:
The officer stood and faced his God, Which must always come to pass. He hoped his shoes were shinning, Just as brightly as his brass.
"Step forward now, Officer, How shall I deal with you? Have you always turned the other cheek To my church have you been true?"
The officer squared his shoulder and said, "No, Lord, I guess I aint, Because those of us who carry badges can't always be a saint.
I've had to work most Sundays, And at times my talk was rough, And sometimes I've been violent Because the streets are tough.
But I never took a penny That wasn't mine to keep.. Though I worked a lot of overtime, when the bills got too steep.
And I never passed a cry for help Though at times I shook with fear. And sometimes, God forgive me, I've wept an unmanly tear.
I know I don't deserve a place among the people here. They never wanted me around except to calm their fear.
If you've a place for me here, Lord, it needn't be so grand. I never expected or had too much, But if you don't...I'll understand.
There was silence all around the throne, where the saints often trod. As the officer waited quietly for the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now, Officer. You've borne your burdens well. Come walk a beat on heaven's streets, You've done your time in hell"

To Officer Curtis and his family,
Thank you for the ultimate sacrifice your father, husband, son, brother, and friend gave for protecting the citizens of Tampa. What a hero in life and a hero in death by donating his organs so others may have a chance at living a longer, healthier life.
To Officer Curtis' children: YOUR DAD IS A HERO!!! He did a job that so few people sign up to do. I send my thoughts and prayers to all of you and to the brothers and sisters if Tampa Police Department.
God Speed! Your work on earth is complete we will take it from here. Please continue to watch over all of us. Say hi to Officer Travis Murphy as we just lost him!!
