Reflections for Trooper First Class Kenneth Ray Hall

"The Final Inspection"

The policeman stood and faced his God,Which must always come to pass. He hoped his shoes were shining.
Just as brightly as his brass.

"Step forward now, policeman. How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek? To My church have you been true?"

The policeman squared his shoulders and said, "No, Lord, I guess I ain't, 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 awfully tough.

But I never took a penny, That wasn't mine to keep.... Though I worked a lot of overtime when the bills got just 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 unmanly tears.

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 had often trod. As the policeman waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.

"Step forward now, policeman, you've borne your burdens well. Come walk a beat on Heaven's streets, you've done your time in hell."

This just saddens me so much because it should not have ever happened. 22 years of service wiped away by a thoughtless driver not paying attention to the road ahead.
May God's great love envelope your loved ones, Trooper Hall.
Thank you for your many years of dedication and service to
the public. We honor your memory this day. You will never be forgotten.
