Reflections for Correctional Officer Fred Sidney Griffis

Wow, Officer Griffis is in fact a true hero!!! Unarmed and facing certain death, he still did his best to keep the prisoners under his watch, in custoday. Not too many others in his position would do the same. God Bless...

Rest in Peace C.O. Griffis. Inmate transportation is very dangerous work, and you paid the ultimate price while in performance of your duties. Your sacrifice will not be forgotten.

Correctional Officer's Farewell

We all know it can happen,
When we put our Colors on.
It only takes an instant,
Then one of us is gone.

Day to day we walk our beat,
In God we put our faith.
'Cause we’re the law inside the wall,
We keep the Public safe.

You’ve done the job that few can do,
Your shift is at an end.
Farewell my Brother, Rest in peace,
On you we could depend.
