Very sorry to hear of the untimely passing of Deputy Soto. The whole 9/11 incident is still highly suspect and controversial.

"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."

IN MEMORY OF DEPUTY U.S. MARSHAL ZACARIAS TORO

To the family, friends, and colleagues of Deputy U.S. Marshal Zacarias Toro

From the beginning of time after Cain killed his brother, Abel, there has been a need for law enforcement officers to protect the weak and to bring evildoers to justice. This work is necessary in a sinful world and is dangerous. In modern times, some two hundred and seventy-two Deputy U.S. Marshals have sacrificed their lives to protect the citizens of the United States of America. Today, we honor the sacrifice of Deputy U.S. Marshal Zacarias Toro, of the United States Marshals Service; who died as a result of cancer that he developed in the line-of-duty following the assignment to assist with search and rescue efforts at the World Trade Center site immediately following the Terrorist Attacks of September 11, 2001, in New York City, New York.

Lord God, we are grateful for the life of Deputy U.S. Marshal Zacarias Toro. He died serving us. Help us never to forget him. Help us celebrate the life of Deputy U.S. Marshal Zacarias Toro and honor his sacrifice. Be with the family, friends, and colleagues of this fallen hero. Comfort them and give them your strength. Guide those who seek to take care of the family of this hero. May those empowered to do so, care for them with integrity. In commemorating the death of this hero, help those who mourn to remember that death is not the end. Death does not have the final say, but is simply the transition to the glorious life to come. They should look forward to that life to come with joy and thanksgiving.

As for the citizens of the United States of America, help them to faithfully equip their law enforcement officers with the best tools to protect their country. May their training be adequate to the task. Help the citizens of the United States of America to remember to pay their law enforcement officers fairly and treat them with respect. Help the citizens of the United States of America to obey the law and treat each other with dignity so as not to add to the burden of crime and pain to their country.

The time for mourning will soon pass. We have now remembered and celebrated the life lost in this great tragedy. As the family, friends, and colleagues of Deputy U.S. Marshal Zacarias Toro go forward, they must celebrate the good things in their lives; and to celebrate life itself!

Finally, Lord God, we pray for the families, friends, and colleagues of all the law enforcement officers who have been killed in the line-of-duty and we thank you for their sacrifices. Bless the lives of their families, friends, and colleagues so they might find healing. Help their law enforcement organizations support the families of these fallen heroes. Even though their deaths might have been senseless, make something good come out of these situations so that their law enforcement organizations and the communities in which they lived and served might be stronger because of their lives and their deaths.

Now, Deputy U.S. Marshal Zacarias Toro, may the Lord bless you, and keep you: the Lord make His face to shine upon you, and be gracious unto you: the Lord lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace. Amen.
