Our beloved Brother, as you now patrol the streets of Heaven, may you look

back with pride knowing you did your job valiantly. You went running toward

the danger to protect your citizens. We thank you for your service and for

your sacrifice. We thank you for your life you gave As Only A Warrior Dare.

Job well done Sir. May you continue your vigilant watch over us all as we

carry on in the battles to come. In Our Brother's Honor.
