Dedicated to Collin Rose and to police officer in America and worldwide.
Who are willing to give their all, protecting their country and us!
Collin Rose remembered today at his,
somber salute at Ford Field this,
Wayne State University police officer,
Collin Rose shot Tuesday. 6:31 PM,
November 22, 2016 died shortly-
thereafter from his mortal wounds!
Wayne State police are unique,
and very well educated,
upright and the finest in the country,
character beyond reproach,
dedication to duty immeasurable!
Their badges and honor glow,
like the stars of heaven,
and their faces shine,
brightly like the morning sun!
Such as did Collin Rose!
Whose life will be celebrated,
at St. Joan of Arc Catholic Church,
St. Clair shores Michigan.
Whatever we can do will never be enough,
for his family and the love of his life,
Collin and his Detroit K-nine unit!
Where he served faithfully honorably,
until his death though his life exalted!
In heaven with all the police officers,
slain before in the line of duty.
Honoring and protecting what they love!
Life, love and pursuit of happiness,
you and I sisters and brothers!
So pray always and thank God,
for Brother Collin and family,
and police worldwide who protect us.
They are our soldier on the front lines,
right here at home in America!
A WORTHY TRIBUTE. I WENT TO THE NEWS ARTICLE, INDEED SO VERY SAD. HE SOUNDS LIKE A FINE OFFICER, BUT IN REALITY WE MUST ACKNOWLEDGE THAT ALL OFFICERS ARE NOT LIKE OFFICER ROSE. AND, WITH THAT SAME REALITY, WE MUST ACKNOWLEDGE THAT ALL YOUNG MEN ARE NOT LIKE HIS ACCUSED KILLER. THUS, THE BOTTOM LINE IS...ALL TEARS MATTER. THANKS FOR SHARING. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS
Without police, our society would quickly break down into vigilantism. Every officer knows the danger and the expectation that he or she will be the target of reprisal. So, it is, as you have stated in your poem, imperative that the police officer be honest and upright in all behavior related to policing, or society will lose its trust in what police do.
