Heavenly Father, I pray for the families, friends, and colleagues of all Law Enforcement Officers and their K-9 Partners who have been killed in the Line-of-Duty and I thank You for their sacrifices. If You are willing, please bless the lives of their families, friends, and colleagues so they might find emotional and spiritual healing. Please, O Lord, help their law enforcement departments and agencies support the families, friends, and colleagues of those who have fallen in the Line-of-Duty. Even though their deaths might have been senseless, make something good come out of these situations so that the law enforcement departments and agencies and the communities that they worked and lived might be stronger because of their lives and their deaths. In the mighty and holy Name of the Lord Jesus Christ, I pray. Amen.

“The peacemakers are blessed, for they will be called sons [children] of God” [Matthew 5:9 HCSB]

“Those who mourn are blessed, for they will be comforted.” [Matthew 5:4 HCSB]

A police officer should be remembered not by how he died but how he lived! A great man has gone to secure a safe path for the rest of us to follow. Thank you to you, your family and the Hardin County Sheriff's Department. Our country is a little less safe without you. Rest in Peace Brother!
