You will never be forgotten {Central Minnesota Photographer}

Many of you know me personally and know that we are a Law Enforcement family. I say that in the truest sense. The men and women my husband work with are a family, therefore our families are families. And on Saturday, January 30, 2010 we lost a family member.
Patrick J. Callaghan was just 31 years young. Gone too soon. Loved so much. I found this poem and I thought I would share, as our families now have another Angel watching over us.

Angel of the Blue

I knew he was an angel,
For his hair was of gold,
And when I looked into his eyes
I knew that he had been an angel from times untold.

Upon his blue chest
His badge still shined so bright,
And within its silver and gold,
Danced flickering starlight.

The words to serve and protect
Were woven into his shirt of blue,
And pride and honor
Were woven there too.

Silhouetted against
The soft moonlight,
His wings seemed to whisper to me
I’ll walk with you this long night.

Though there was glory for him in heaven
He choose an earthly beat,
Watching over his brothers in blue
As they walked the dark streets.

Pat, God Bless your family & friends and may you Rest in Peace. You will never, ever be forgotten.
