Boone County Sheriff reads "Killed in the Line of Duty"

They always knew they could be They never thought they would be God knows none ever should be Killed in the line of duty Some made their final stand Their profession’s last demand They fell with gun in hand Killed in the line duty A routine to many a cop Some made one final stop Someone’s Mom or Pop Killed in the line of duty Others answered one last call To a robbery, theft, or brawl They arrived only to fall Killed in the line of duty Some were dressed in brown, some blue Some in gray, and plain clothes too Some were dressed like me and you Killed in the line of duty May their souls be forever blessed For they who are now at rest Died doing what they loved best Killed in the line of duty Forgotten they never could be Forgotten they never should be Thought they never would be Killed in the line of duty God bless all those who fell They are missed and loved so well Let us pray and toll the bell Those killed in the line of duty Amen
