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…
This inspiring poem was written by Jim Weaver, a retired LAPD Officer and former Idaho Sheriff. It is submitted with his full support and approval. We feel ceremonies such as this actually occur in the Heavenly Realm. We can all gain a glimpse at… ImagineHeaven.net …with the faith building book by Pastor John Burke, and his NDE interviews with credible individuals granted such Near Death Experiences. Both my Pastor and Family Doctors feel many such instances are fully valid. Indeed, “Do nor fear…for it is the Father’s good pleasure to give you the Kingdom” (Luke 12:32). May the Family, Friends and Department be comforted as Magnificent Reunions truly await all Christians!

I knew this man. I knew him as a brother. A fellow "tip of the spear". His eyes were always kind. His spirit always giving, even to those underserving. My heart is broken over the loss of this good man. May God keep his family and brothers in arms in grace and grant them peace in some way. God's speed, Officer Carraway.

Our family prays for peace, comfort and strength for the family of this noble and brave Officer, Florence PD and Florence County SO. 30 years, and he could have walked away yet he chose to stay, serve and protect his community. The definition of a hero in a book pales in comparison to the life lived as one by this servant.

This deeply saddens me every time I hear about an other officer being shot and killed or wounded. LEO’s don’t do this work for fame or glamour. But simple because we want to make this world a better place for our family’s and our neighbors. Thank you for you 30 years of service.

My heart goes out to the family of this courageous Officer. Having lost a son also, Deputy Alexis Thunder Eagle Locklear, this past March, I can understand the loss of a beloved member.
Thank you for your heroic deed and self-sacrificing service. I will keep family, friends and fellow officers in my prayers.

No law enforcement officer ever leaves home at night thinking, “Tonight I’m going to be killed in the line of duty.” Yet we see and hear of the senseless killing of one officer and critically wounding other responding officers
to a savage coward holding children hostage.
As sheriff, I am saddened to hear this news of a town just across the state line from Georgia. On behalf of the Stephens Co. Sheriff’s Office and the citizens we serve, we send our deepestest condolences to Officer Carraway’s family, as well as his brothers and sisters at the Florence Police Department. May Christ’s comforting peace and love give each of you the strength to endure the coming days and months ahead.
Rest on high my brother-our loss but Heavens gain.
