In Memory of our Fallen Heroes

FOR THE OFFICERS AND FAMILIES
Dear Lord, It was only a moment, but...

In that moment a madman walked in.
In that moment the world was changed.
In that moment countless lives, were utterly altered.
In that moment our hearts began breaking.
In these moments we speak names previously unknown: with reverence, "Renninger, Griswold, Owens and Richards."
In a moment their line of blue stretched out across the nation.
That hard, fast and steady line of blue has been breached.
In these moments help us as we have all become a part of the line of BLUE.
Dry our tears, comfort our broken hearts, strengthen our weaken knees, cure our confusion. May the line of BLUE draw a circle around us pulling back our hope.
May the line of BLUE be a shield before us.
May the line of BLUE carry us into the days of our future.
A future made sure by their sacrifice in a moment.
It was only a moment and they were gone but we and the line of Blue go on.

In honor of those fallen.
