Forever in Our Minds: A Memorial

by Jill Eisnaugle — Read all 611 poems by Jill Eisnaugle

A poem, written to honor the memory of Harris County (Texas) Deputy Constable Jason Norling, who was struck by a motorist and killed while on patrol in Houston, this past Monday. He was 38 years old. Just a few months ago, Deputy Norling was praised for stopping traffic to escort a flock of baby ducklings across a major Houston-area freeway.

May God's grace and our prayers be with his wife, his family, his friends, and his fellow officers, during this difficult time.

Poem Artwork


 

 

 

A selfless man of valor; a hero, tried and true ,
He vowed to serve the public, until his life was through;
A servant sent from Heaven to uphold laws and peace,
Now, flies amid the angels, on billowed clouds of fleece.

 

He loved to work the freeways; his calling was the road,
A deputy on motorbike, his dedication showed;
Eight years spent in his precinct, he gave the job his all,
He was a loyal veteran who, sadly, took a fall.

 

Devoted to his family and the force, from the start,
A friend to those who knew him; he had a loving heart.
He held a special passion for helping those in need;
His life will be remembered, through memories of his creed.

                                                                     

A selfless man of valor, now rests beside the moon;
He was, indeed, a hero, who left this world too soon.
Jason Norling held compassion for all walks of mankind,
And, we will keep his legacy, forever in our minds.

Oh wow, Jill...You should send this to the family, or at least have this printed in their local paper. It is so touching and I'm sure the family would appreciate it.

God bless all those in law enforcement. They risk their lives daily for our safety.

This is a wonderful tribute, but it makes me sad that you had to write it. I pray that his family, friends and co-workers will find peace in knowing that he's in heaven, where each of us aspires to be.
