Patrolman Norman F. Bliss

Father God, You are always faithful and quick to show mercy. Our Brother-In-Blue, Patrolman Norman F. Bliss, of the Templeton MA Police Department, was suddenly and violently taken from us in a traffic collision in the Line-of-Duty! Come swiftly to his aid, have mercy on him, and comfort his family, friends, and comrades by the power and protection of the Cross. In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ, and by His Authority, I pray. Amen.

Please find Encouragement, Comfort, Support, and Hope from God's Word:
