All
right,
george,
don't
need
to
be
free,
but
you
know
it
gives
you
a
family
reunion
kind
of
situation,
so
I've
had
changed
face
to
face
with
men
of
you
today
and
you
know
thinking
of
the
events
recently
in
2019
with
robert
and
even
further
than
that.
You
know
it
really.
You
know,
means
something:
we're
challenged
every
day
to
make
sense,
or
you
know,
put
things
together
that
don't
make
sense.
D
Some
of
these
things
that
have
happened
can't
make
sense
either,
but
yet
we're
challenged
to
do
that
and
go
forward
the
pd
and
the
fire
department.
You
know
every
day.
I
thank
god.
I
thank
you.
I
love
you.
I
love
each
and
every
family
and
in
you-
and
you
know
on
the
occasion
when
the
police
and
the
in
the
fire,
especially
in
front
of
young
people.
If
you
you
look
at
me,
you
know
what
the
good
lord
did
for
us.
You
know
he
gave
his
life
and
they
will
too,
and
that's
been.
D
You
know,
proven
time
and
time
again.
So
I'm
happy
to
be
here,
I'm
happy
to
to
show
you
whatever
leadership
I
can.
I
can
do
for
our
city
on
behalf
of
the
council
and
the
administration
board
of
supervisors,
we're
here
really
we're
successful
because
of
what
you
do
and
the
citizens
you
know
again
invite
me
thank
you
for
what
you've
done
for
us
and
what
you've
done
for
our
life
and
what
you're
doing
for
our
future.
So
chief,
I
thank.

So
bad
weather
has
never
stopped
the
policeman
from
doing
what
they
needed
to
do.
We're
not
going
to
let
it
slow
us
down
today
either
there
may
be
some
family
members
that
are
absent,
but
we've
talked
with
them,
we'll
be
thinking
about
them
and
praying
for
all
special
thanks
to
each
of
you
for
being
here
and
helping
us
to
honor
officers
who
have
lost
their
lives
in
the
line
of
duty.

Father
help
me
remember
that
I'm
out
there
to
help
not
to
hurt
I'm
out
there
to
love
not
to
hate,
I'm
out
there
to
defend
not
to
punish
father,
I'm
weak,
strengthen.
My
will
remind
me
daily
of
my
patrol
card
that
my
brothers
and
sisters
are
also
hurting
help
me
to
identify
at
least
one
person
or
help
me
to
help
me
to
help
at
least
one
person.
Today,
your
friend
mike.

The
thin
blue
line
there
is
a
line,
the
color
of
the
sky
on
a
clear
afternoon.
There
is
a
line,
the
hue
of
the
ocean
on
a
bright
sunny
day.
There
is
a
line
to
the
pure
shade
of
a
newborn's
eyes
awakening
for
the
first
time.
There
is
a
line
that
protects
us
from
harm
and
all
we
do,
whether
day
or
night,
there
is
a
line
no
one
can
penetrate
can
mediate.
G
G
They
choose
to
walk
the
path
of
fear,
hate
and
mistrust
taken
by
few
but
marked
by
so
many,
and
when
one
leaves
this
line,
they
leave
a
legacy,
but
the
line
does
not
break
for
the
remaining
must
still
protect
and
when
one
leaves
this
line,
they
leave
a
legacy,
but
the
line
does
not
break,
but
the
remaining
must
still
protect.
There
may
be
emptiness
a
loss
or
sadness,
but
never
a
hole
not
in
this
line.

We
thank
you
for
your
words
of
comfort,
love
mercy
and
grace,
and
most
of
all,
lord,
we
thank
you
for
the
knowledge
that
our
loved
ones
are
now
in
your
tender,
loving
care
and
now
lord,
as
we
return
to
our
respective
homes,
we
ask
that
you
bless
every
person
who
took
the
time
to
gather
here
today.
We
ask
that
you
also
bless
those
who
are
not
able
to
be
here
today.
A
Lord,
we
ask
that
you
put
your
hand
to
protection
today
and,
for
the
rest
of
the
week,
bless
each
of
us
and
keep
us
safe
until
we
are
able
to
gather
together
again
all
these
things
I
ask
in
jesus
name,
amen
only
father
lord,
ladies
and
gentlemen,
I
just
want
to
leave
you
with
this
illustration
when
jesus
died,
the
position
that
he
took
when
his
last
breath
was
like
this.
A
Hands
outstretched
everyone
thought
that
was
the
end.
Actually,
that
was
just
the
beginning
has
come
to
me
if
you
are
tired,
if
you
are
sick,
come
to
me,
if
you
are
lonely,
come
to
me,
ladies
and
gentlemen,
this
is
this
profession
is
just
one
of
those
professions
that
we
take
home.
A
lot
of
things
that
we
cannot
fix.
So,
as
you
go
home
today,
go
to
your
loved
ones
and
put
out
your
hands
outstretch,
welcome
your
loved
ones
back,
give
them
a
hug.
Let
them
know
that
you
love
them.
Time
is
short.
