Reflections for Conservation Officer Stephen Lawrence Raymond

Officer Raymond,
On today, the 5th anniversary of your death I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice-not just as a Law Enforcement Officer but for our Country as well when you served with the USN during the Vietnam War. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Lord Jesus, as we watch our nation’s brave law enforcement officers succumb to the wicked and evil in this world, it becomes difficult for us to pick up and move forward. Our communities are on the brink of exploding with tension. In light of the law enforcement officers who are no longer with us, I pray for endurance for our communities and law enforcement agencies. Carry us through this time of strife, that through our struggles, our bonds may grow even more unbreakable. In Your mighty and holy name, I pray. Amen.

“And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” Then I said, “Here am I! Send me.” [Isaiah 6:8 ESV]

“Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.” [Psalm 23:4 ESV]

One of the many amazing men and women who gave so selflessly and heroically that day and the many days that followed. Thank you for your service and rest in peace always knowing that your sacrifice will always be remembered by your law enforcement brethren.

I had the privilege to know and work with Steve, as a NYS Encon Officer. We both attended the basic school at the NYS Police Academy and worked with him over the years. He was by far one the smartest, fair and funniest officers to work and be with. He made difficult details or schools easy. Just a good guy who only comes around and know once in a life time. I miss him.
