I called my God in question,
Lord how can this thing be,
To let the wicked woodsman
Cut down this precious tree?
Thou could have took an older tree
That wind and time had worn;
Why take this young and perfect one
That hardly fruit has born.

On whispering wings of silent thought
My God then answered me:
Who told thee that the woodsman
Had harrmed our precious tree?
I've had this tree transplanted,
Removed it from thy face!
Look to where the young tree stood,
Behold the empty place!

For I have land more suited
For such a wonderous tree,
And one so full of promise
I wanted close to me!

Chris,
We worked together a few times when I worked on the ambulance. You were a great cop and good guy all around. You won’t be forgotten. Rest In Peace brother.

I pray for soul of Officer Walsh who sacrificed his most precious thing, god-given life, for public safety and protection of our freedom of speech, democratic institutions, and independence that is hard-won by American Revolution. May God grand that his soul rest in peace with the hope of resurrection and give divine consolation to the bereaved family and friends. I hope that no foreign elements ever act out again on our soil; Mother Mary, please point to the military hanging stand for NAZI sympathisers from Austria, Hungary, Germany, and Japan/Taiwan. Cure these poor things, be their eyes slanted or not, so that they finally gave up Hitler-Hirohito allied maddog daydream and obey divine law. We, people of Australia, the United States of America, New Zealand, Canada, and the United Kingdom, genuinely thank Officer Walsh who continued our fight against Hitler and Hirohito who spawned various kinds of extremists and terrorists who use arms for boastfully "narrow-minded" political objectives. Officer Walsh, please pray to God that they are all terminated very soon. Thank you.

I feel how weak and fruitless must be any word of mine which should attempt to beguile you from the grief of a loss so overwhelming. But I cannot refrain from tendering you the consolation that may be found in the thanks of the Republic they died to save. I pray that our Heavenly Father may assuage the anguish of your bereavement, and leave you only the cherished memory of the loved and lost, and the solemn pride that must be yours to have laid so costly a sacrifice upon the altar of freedom.

Yours, very sincerely and respectfully,

Abraham Lincoln

Officer Christopher Walsh, you will forever be a hero. You put on your uniform daily and wore it so proudly. Your daughter loved being held close to your badge. Sir, your watch ended short because you were protecting your community. Although you were so young you inspired everyone that knew you. Your community and your family hurts but rest assure our savior Jesus Christ has a place for you and will give your family the understanding and comfort needed at this time. My thoughts and prayers for your loved ones sir.
