BROTHER... This word alone can be held as sacred in the brotherhood/sisterhood bonding that we as public servants and the military can truly relate to. The courage that you upheld during the time of need is commendable. As i have read the so many news articles there was one particular one that just made the eyes swell with bitter sweet... It was of how your wife re capped the incident as she listened to the police scanner. I still have watery eyes and the burning in the throat. You are loved, remembered and most of all... HONORED as a father, husband, friend, and a BROTHER! RIP

We offer our heartfelt sympathy to the family, friends and colleagues of Police Officer Alex Yazzie and we honor his distinguished service to the cause of justice and peace. Sadly, our nation has lost one of its finest citizens, a community has lost a friend and protector, and a family has lost an example of character and courage who they will love and respect forever. 

To the family, friends, and colleagues of Officer Yazzie, I would like you to know that a lot of people pray for you, and my hope is that their prayers will give you the strength necessary to move on.  Just as you were always with him when he walked the beat or patrolled the streets, know that he will always be with you - wherever you may be.  In the days to follow, may you be strengthened by the fact that Officer Yazzie is a man distinguished by exceptional courage and will always be admired for his brave deeds and noble qualities. You, your family, and your sacrifice will never be forgotten.

"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."

God Bless you and yours, Alex Yazzie. I thank you personally not only for your fourteen years of courageous and dedicated service and ultimate sacrifice to the Navajo nation, but for your prior service to our great country. You were truly one of the great ones!
I pray that God watches over and protects your brothers in arms, both in the Corps and in Law Enforcement. I ask our Heavenly Father to watch over and give His peace and comfort your family, friends and the Navajo Division of Public Safety, Tribal Police. Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

For your service to this nation and to the Navajo Nation, I thank you. You truly are a hero and I for one will not mourn your murderer, but like all of us in the law enforcement family, though I did not ever meet you, I mourn you.

God Bless and may you eternally Rest in Peace, Brother.

Feel His presence as God answers the prayers of many who have fallen to their knees on your behalf. Since the day of my son's death, I have carried every law enforcement officer and their family in my heart.

Every morning I go to my knees. During that time I pray:

“Lord, Be with all law enforcement officers. Keep them safe and free from harm. They are Your soldiers on the front line of the battle against evil. If one should fall this day - wrap their family in your loving arms. Surround them with Your angels, loving family, friends, neighbors and caring people to comfort them. Ease their pain. Help them to mourn well. In Jesus' name and for Your Glory, Amen.”

I have lifted you and your family to God every morning for over four years. Feel those prayers. God is with you; He knows and will ease your pain.

Our faith helps us to see beyond the grave.
