Reflections for Special Police Officer Dwayne Anthony Reeves
Nothing is more terrible than hearing that another Brother/Sister in Blue has fallen in the line of duty. SPO Reeves was and always will be a highly respected member of the Newark Police Dept. To the Family of SPO Reeves I offer my deepest sympathies. May God bless you always.

Lord, why can't people be good,
Then we would not have to worry
about losing our loved one like we did.
There is no reason for cops to have to die,
Because Lord they are just trying to protect, in every way that they know how.
We see them on the streets each day,
In uniforms of blue, black or gray.
They will talk to you if you will take the time, To ask them, "How are you today?"
They are not the Bad Guys, Like some people portray them to be,
They have a loving family, just like you and me.
So why can't they be respected,
for the Good Guys that they are,
Because there is no Junk put in a patrol car.
So the next time you look in your mirror,and you see a blue light or hear a siren, PLEASE always remember, They have a family and loved ones just like you, who would like to see them come home, when their shift is through.
You know in your heart, if you have nothing to hide, you won't mind stopping when you see the lights. So if you would PLEASE stop and think, and maybe another family won't have to take that awful ride, TO PUT THEIR PRECIOUS LOVED ONE AT A GRAVE SITE.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Officer Fisher's family and friends,also you fellow partners. May God fold his loving arms around you and keep you forever in his loving care. We know that we cannot bring our loved ones back to us, but my prayer for you is that you can have the experience of hearing him speak to you in that sweet whisper and saying, "don't worry about me, I'm alright, just prepare to come meet me here in heaven." and also to feel the flutter on wings around your back and to hear God say," He is at rest here with me, he is going to be alright." I (Shane's Mom) have heard and felt all these things. Just pray and have faith and believe that God will help you.
Shane was our only child, he was a firefighter,just like his Dad, an EMT with the local rescue squad and a police Officer for only 6 hours. He reported for work on the night of May 14, at 7 o'clock and was kilked in a high rate pursuit at 1 o'clock am. He was only 27 years old.
GOD BLESS EACH ONE OF YOU!!!!!!!!!

“REMEMBER ME”
Law enforcement officers are, indeed, a special breed of people. Ask anyone on the street and they will tell you that they would not have our jobs for anything in the world. It takes something special to do what we do and at the same time be able to even contemplate retirement. We try to be optimists. Unfortunately, there are a few of us who will never make that date with retirement. By the very nature of our job, we are at risk everyday of losing our lives, either at the hand of some deranged individual or in some other situation that we, by virtue of our occupation, may be unable to avoid. Some people have recognized the hazardous duties we involve ourselves in, the risks we take, and the pride we take in accomplishing that job. There is National Law Enforcement Week, dedicated to us who gladly accept the responsibility of protecting the citizens in our respective jurisdictions. National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Day is dedicated to those who gave their lives in the line of duty. These are but a two examples of remembrances specifically for law enforcement personnel. Remembrances that come but once a year. We should remind fellow officers of another type of remembrance, one that will last a lifetime. Sooner or later, a doctor will pronounce us dead. It is inevitable. Regardless of whatever happens, death is the end we will all have to face.

When people ask me why I became a police officer I have a one word answer....kids.
There isn't a more important job than protecting the safety and innocence of children.
Thank you for your courageous service doing such an important job.
Your sacrifice will NEVER be forgotten.
God speed Officer Reeves, we will take it from here.
