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"

I am saddened by your passing, and our loss of another officer. I respect and appreciate the sacrifice of our law enforcement personnel provides on a daily basis. While driving to work on the day of Jim's funeral, I saw the procession of law enforcement cars entering the highway and motorist stopping as a show of respect. Jim, you are not forgotten. My thoughts and prayers are with your family and fellow law enforcement officers.

Jim....I sit here at home with tears in my eyes and a heavy heart reflecting on the past week. The tragic event, the confusion and the heart breaking sorrow. The crisp uniforms and shiny shoes at your Grand funeral. I think you would of thought this far to much for the humble man you were. I believe now that you are gone we will all have an angel on our shoulder watching over us. I unequivocally believe that your friends here at Lakewood will watch and protect your family for you.

A Police Officers heart always knows.

Rest in Peace

I have spent the last few days trying to find the words to honor an amazing officer and friend but everything I write seems completely inadequate so I will keep this short. I am thankful I had the opportunity to know you, work with you, and learn from you. I don’t know anyone who works harder. Each time I worked with you I was inspired to do more. Thank you and Rest in Peace.
