We never know when, but have accepted the "if". It's what we do. Our families hope it never happens, but "if" it does, the family of blue will love and support them. Officer Smith, I did not know you in life, but I serve in honor of you in your death. May your family find comfort in knowing you are now resting with the Lord. May they find peace in your remembrance. Thank you for your service to your family, community and fellow CPD Officers.
