To the family we send our love and support. We pray that the Lord wraps His loving arms around you in your time of need. We know what you are going through and we too have felt your pain. We wrap our arms around his wife, children and his law enforcement family. Rest in peace Brent, your shift here is over and we will take it over from here. (Romans 8:28)

There's a reason I cried, When I heard an officers had died

The reality hit hard in the life that we live, To a job where people are asking you to constantly give.

One of the finest today paid the ultimate price And with pride and honor made his greatest sacrifice.

To protect and serve, is how you lived your live, My heart goes out to your now widowed wife.

It's a knock on the door every officer's spouse fears And that's why today my eye's are filled with tears.

Our thoughts and prayers are for the familie that will be without, A father, a husband, a brother who will be missed.

Heaven called one of your finest home today, A price anyone who loves an officer hopes they will never pay.

Lord, Watch over each and every unsung hero we pray, So they can be with the ones they love at the end of their day.

R.I.P OFFICER, Brent Long, You Have done us proud!

1thessalonians4:13-18 we do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, concerning those who are asleep, so that you will not grieve like the rest, who have no hope. since we believe jesus died and rose again,in the same way god will bring with him those who have fallen asleep thru jesus. for we say that to you by a revelation from the lord.we who are still alive at the lords coming will certainly have no advantage over those who have fallen asleep.for the lord himself will descend from heaven with the archangels voice and with the trumpet of god and the dead in christ will rise first. then we who are still alive will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the lord in the air; and so we will always be with the lord. therefore encourage one another with these words
