I cannot get over what happened. It’s the worst recent terror in my life. That morning. Please pray for me. Your Pasadenian neighbor who made it good in Houston. Who after the Thunder Rolls one stormy night with my babies or maybe pregnant with a baby. Maybe the Alley Cat Theatre directors murderers passed me. After Tommy Lee Lot The day after Mike Edger said I am Dustins father. I moved to Huntington. To my family farm. The best hasn’t ever been in here

Jesus, the Great Physician, the loss of life of one of our police officers is so very painful and devastating to endure. It can ravage a community for such a long time. I ask that You come and dwell in our midst. Let Your holy word be a healing balm that soothes our wounds and allows us to heal from the loss of this police officer. Help us to learn from his/her selfless example of dedication and devotion to protecting us. Let our memories of him/her not be ones of sadness for their loss, but of celebration of a life lived in the image of You. Condolences to your family and friends. God Speed my Brother. We'll take it from here. Amen.

Bill was a true warrior. Bill’s memory will live on with many Houston Police Officers who had the privilege of working with him as I did. Bill was the thin blue line that stands strong against evil. Anyone who worked with Bill was proud to have him by their side knowing there was no better backup. Bill was a courageous man who ultimately gave it all. It is an honor to have worn the same uniform. Rest In Peace.

It was an honor serving with a cop like you on Houston Police, especially with South Central Patrol. You are a cop's cop, and you will be missed.

RIP Bro...We Got The Watch.

End of Watch Monday, September 20, 2021


Rest in Peace brother and watch over us. We will protect and serve from here on in your honor.

I fight not for glory or fame, for they are momentary. I fight for those who can't. I fight for Justice. I fight for the oppressed and the down trodden. And if I should lose my life for these just causes, then I have no regrets, For I serve to protect the innocent. It matters not where or when, for evil knows no boundaries. Be it fire, flood, or the threat of tyranny, I will not flee. Justice is my weapon. Faith is my shield. Hope is my armor. Cry not at my passing, for it was my Honor to fight for you. Shed not tears of sorrow, But tears of joy, for now, I stand with God.

The true measure of a person
is not found in the
might of their arm,
their wealth
or their power –
it is found in the strength
of their character.

There is no greater testimony to
ones character, than ones
willingness to sacrifice all,
in the noble quest of
providing protection to all
whom they serve.

In Honor of your Sacrifice and for your family and friends, I salute you as a HERO!

"The Badge"

He starts his shift each day
To respond to calls unknown.
He drives a marked patrol car.
A police officer he is known.

He's paid by the citizens' taxes
To make it safe on the streets.
But he usually has a second job
'Cause a waitress has his salary beat.

Now he doesn't know a holiday
'Cause he works all year round.
And when Thanksgiving and Christmas finally arrive
At his home he cannot be found.

He's cursed and assaulted often,
The one whose blood runs blue.
He seldom ever gets a thanks,
To some he's just a fool.

His friends are always other cops
'Cause people just don't understand
That underneath his badge and gun,
He's just another man.

He knows there might not be a tomorrow
In this world of drugs and crime.
And he gets so mad at the court system
'Cause the crooks don't get any time.

And each day when he leaves for work,
He prays to God above.
Please bring me home after my shift
So I can see the ones I love.

But tonight he stops a speeding car,
He's alone down this ole' highway.
It's just a little traffic infraction.
He does it everyday.

Well, he walks up to the driver's window,
And his badge is shining bright.
He asked the guy for a driver's license,
When a shot rang through the night.

Yes, the bullet hit its mark,
Striking the officer in the chest.
But the Department's budget didn't buy
Each officer a bullet-proof vest.

So he lay on the ground bleeding.
His blood wasn't blue - His blood was red.
And briefly he thought of his loved ones
'Cause in a moment the officer was dead.

In the news they told the story
Of how this officer had died.
And some who listened cared less,
But those who loved him cried.

Well, they buried him in uniform
With his badge pinned on his chest.
He even had his revolver,
He died doing his best.

I knew Bill, he was a friend. He was also a great cop who cared about his community, as well as a husband, father, and grandfather. I’m going to miss our infrequent phone calls and frequent texts just to see how we were fairing. Godspeed, Brother. I’ll see you someday.
