Rest with God officer Ellis. Your tour here is over, thus you are home. Prayers for your family during this time in their lives. Your dedicated service and ultimate sacrifice will never be forgotten.

I am deeply sadden over the loss of Detective Daniel Ellis. My heart goes out to the family, RPD Partner and fellow officers in Richmond. Such a tragedy. There are no words of comfort. Know this, Daniel is a HERO and standing strong with his brothers in Heaven. We love you and we are praying HARD for you all. We understand your pain all to well. My 8 year old grand-daughter recited this Irish blessing before thousands when we laid my son Trooper Joseph Cameron Ponder to rest...maybe it will bring a measure of peace.

May the roads rise to meet you...
May the winds be always at your back...
May the sun shine warm upon your face...
May the rain fall soft upon your fields.
and until we meet again...
May the Lord hold you in the palm of your hand...
May He bless you and keep you safe...

Take a breath each day and you will be taking one for Daniel.We love you so much and are here for you. Brenda, Cameron's Mom

Back in the days, when cities first formed police departments, the poet Walt Whitman wrote, “I dreamed in a dream, I saw a city, invincible, to the attacks, of the whole of the rest of the earth”. As officers work the streets every day, in cities large and small, we know, better than most, that the dream has not yet been realized. But we, as officers pasted and present endeavor to make the dream reality.
Why them and not me. As a cop, I’ve asked myself that question many times. But, I’ve come to realize that any cop, on any given day can ask themselves that same question. And some questions have no answers.
Men and women who become officers make a choice, a choice to live a life of service. We choose to put ourselves in harms way. To be a guardian, to the people of this great nation. We will never be able to thank the officers who have gone before us. They made the supreme sacrifice. But this we CAN and WILL do. We will REMEMBER THEM always. We will remember that as in life, and in death, they embody all, that we as citizens can hope to be. May God bless our fallen brother Officer Ellis and welcome him home. May God bless his family and coworkers through this time of sorrow and remember how he LIVED ... It's an HONOR to call you my brother!
