Someone Killed A Policeman Today
Someone killed a policeman today
And a part of America died...
And a piece of our country which he swore to protect
Will be buried with him at his side.

The beat that he walked was a battlefield too,
Just as if he had gone off to war.
Though the flag of our nation won't fly at half mast,
To his name they will add a gold star.

The suspect that shot him will stand up in court
With counsel demanding his rights,
While a young, widowed mother must work hard for kids
And spend many long, lonely nights.

Yes, someone killed a policeman today,
Maybe in your hometown or mine,
While we slept in comfort behind our locked doors
A cop put his life on the line.

Now his ghost walks the beat on a dark city street
And he stands by each new rookies side.
He answered the call, of himself gave his all

And a Part of America Died!

Officer Swasey, thank you for your service and sacrifice. You will always be remembered as a Hero. You responded to the scene after hearing of other officers under fire from another agency and did so without hesitation. You laid your life down for other officers and other citizens in need of help. I will think of you as I patrol as a warrior for the thin blue line. I hope your family finds comfort in knowing how you placed others above yourself as a final act of selflessness and the true embodiment of a true peace officer. Thank you brother, we have the watch from here.

John 15:13 - Greater love hath no man than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.

Garrett,

Words cannot describe how I Felt when I seen your picture in the Gazette a few minutes ago as the officer that was killed today. You and I along with 21 others went through the police academy together, and now I lost a good friend. I will never forget the times that you and I had, and the memories that we shared. Thank you for being an awesome person, and thank you for being such a great officer and dedicated to the people of Colorado Springs. You will never be forgotten.
