Our thoughts and prayers are with Trooper Ponder's family and fellow officers. Unfortunately, this scenario is being repeated all too often due to the national disregard for the lives of men and women in uniform who faithfully serve. Thank you a Trooper Ponder for your service and your response to a higher calling to "protect and serve". May God's grace be with your family and comrades.

Avenue of the Fallen

Standing at attention in their class “A“uniforms, badges gleaming and shoes like glass, are your brothers and sisters of Law Enforcement. All of whom have previously paid the ultimate price.
Today, like many others, they welcome you to this wonderful place.
As you march down the Avenue of the Fallen, all eyes focus on you as if to say “it’s OK, you’re with your eternal partners.”
A salute is followed and a tear can be seen on so many faces.
Welcome, you served well.
Now come join us in the ranks, another is coming home.

RIP Kentucky State Police Trooper Joseph Cameron Ponder. Your tour was short, but like the many before, you gave your all. I hope that your family,friends, and community are able to see how many people you have helped, touched and guided with your presence. May they see the impact you had on everyone you met. I know God does and that is why he has called on you.. As he welcomes you with open arms we pray for him to comfort those who are left behind. Let you not be remembered for your death... but for how you lived! Thank you Sir for your dedication, compassion, and true spirit of the law. Soar with the angels, for we have it from here. You have made your final call, and you are home. 10-42

We extend our thoughts and prayers to Tropper Ponder's family and fellow officers. Unfortunately, this scenario is becoming commonplace with the national disregard for law enforcement. Behind each badge is someone responding to a higher call to protect and serve, just as Trooper Ponder did. May the grace of our Lord comfort and encourage through this "valley".
