Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Heavenly Father, I come before You today grieved in heart over the divisions in our country; the United States of America. I grieve for every life lost to violence, regardless of color or creed. And I especially grieve this day over the senseless deaths of America’s Peace Officers whose sworn duty is to protect us from harm. Please grant comfort and hope to their families. I know from the Holy Scriptures in Romans 13 that Peace Officers have a sacred task, to enforce laws that protect the innocent and punish the guilty. I pray that You will protect them as they serve us. Give them wisdom, discernment, and a deep desire to serve You. Please surround every Peace Officer in our nation, the United States of America, with battalions of warring angels to protect them from harm. I stand in the powerful and mighty name of the Lord Jesus Christ against every work of Satan intended to inflict injury and death on our Protectors. May Satan’s power be thwarted, in Your mighty and holy name, and his plans exposed by Your Light. In the mighty and holy name of the Lord Jesus Christ, our Savior, our Redeemer, and the Mediator between us, Heavenly Father, in prayer, and by His authority, I pray! Amen.

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

“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.”
[Matthew 5:9 ESV];

"Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me." [Psalm 23:4 ESV];

"Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends."
[John 15:13 ESV];

"Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted." [Matthew 5:4 ESV];

"And he [Jesus] said to him, "Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in Paradise." [Luke 23:43 ESV], and;

"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life." [John 3:16 ESV].

I worked for many years in the 63 with Jackie and she was one of the kindest , most caring persons I have ever met. I bumped into her through the years and always enjoyed seeing her. She was taken much too soon from us. I miss her sunny smile and quirky ways. Rest In Peace Jackie. You are missed

Lt. McCarthy died having helped so many people in her life. She is now serving our Lord God in Heaven. I did not know Lt. McCarthy personally, despite working the 9/11 details in NYC since 9/12, but I know the type of person she was by her co-worker (Retired Sgt. Paul Simon) reflection regarding his former boss. Also, her photo depicts a mirthful and caring human being. Thank you Lt. McCarthy for helping fellow police officers and their families during their difficult times.

My personal condolences to the immediate family of Lt. McCarthy and to her mother and father, as well as to Sgt. Simon and the rest of her friends. May God be with you all, especially her immediate family and Sgt. Simon.

Dear Jackie,
I am filled with so many thoughts and memories. You served honorably, a good Cop, a good Boss and a good C.O. You were the Unit Commanding Officer and I was fortunate to serve as your Executive Officer. You made my job as Sergeant and X.O. seem easy and effortless. I will always have fond memories of the days we worked together as it was my last command before I retired. Thank you for making my last year on the job a happy one. Till we meet again at the last return roll call, you will always remain in my thoughts and prayers as you now watch over us from heaven.
