From Joe 90's blog. A fine tribute.


'And I never passed a cry for help,
though at times I shook with fear,
and sometimes, God, forgive me,
i've wept unmanly tears.
I know I don't deserve a place
among the people here.
They never wanted me around,
except to calm their fear.'
'There was silence all around the throne
where saints had often trod,
as the policeman waited quietly,
for the judgement of his God,
"Step forward now Policeman.
You've bourne your burdens well.
Come walk a beat on heaven's streets,
you've done your time in hell.'

Aww. I'm starting to like him. He's like a pet.
Let's call him cuddles from now on.

For me, that poem said it all, especially:

"Step forward now policeman,
you've bourne your burdens well.
Come walk a beat on heaven's streets,
you've done your time in hell."

That poem says everything perfectly. That picture of him & his little girl is heartbreaking though, may he rest in peace.

Silly Cuddles! You've gone and tried to think for yourself again and where's that left you? Now you just look silly.
If it's any help, in the menus at the top of the screen, you'll find a spell check. Use it.
