May the peace of God that surpasses all understanding be with Detective White's family

Today in the sun, I bid him farewell
A man, a hero, I never knew well

Like many before him, who answered the call
Wearing a badge, he was destined to fall

Though by choice a long life and a happy old age
Would he have chosen, had he written the page

But the office he chose never promised long life
Just half of his salary, for his child and his wife

He went without fear, into the darkness of night
Bringing comfort to some, to some others light

Easing their pain and calming their fears
He did his duty, never asking for cheers

A husband, a cop, he answered the call
We bid him farewell for he gave his all

Dave was a very upstanding individual and a great friend. I served with Dave overseas and couldn't ask for a better person to have serving with me. My thoughts and prayers go out to his wife and kids. He will be severly missed and forever remembered! Rest in Peace brother.

ONLY A MOMENT
Dedicated to those who lost their lives in the line of duty by Chaplain Chuck Boman
Dear Lord,
It was only a moment, but in that moment of madness our world changed.
In that moment countless lives were changed.
Hearts were broken, and names previously unknown are now spoken with reverence.

In only a moment the Line of Blue stretching out across our nation was broken – that hard, fast, steady line was breached.
In moments like these all citizens become a part of the Line of Blue.
Momentarily we feel defenseless – but only for a moment.

In only a moment the Line of Blue re-forms, drawing a circle around us to restore our hope.
Our tears dry, our broken hearts comforted, weak knees strengthened and sanity restored – the Line of Blue – our shield of protection still stands.

The moment passes, but in that moment we mourn for the life that was taken and grieve for the survivors. Remembering the sacrifice made to protect and serve.

It was only a moment – but they are gone, a sacrifice made to give us a future.
We pause in our sorrow reflecting what might have been… but them we press on for, by the Grace of God, the Line of Blue still stands! Amen!
From the Preface of the book, “Cops on the Street” compiled by Chaplain Grant Wolf
