Rest In Peace

You can't help hearing, reading and seeing the sadness the Kyle Pagerly family is feeling. Today Kyle will be laid to rest. Since I have lived here in Berks County There have been 2 police officers shot and killed and most recently Kyle, a Canine Deputy Sheriff with the Berks County Sheriff's Department since 2006 had been killed in the line of duty with his best friend Jynx by his side. 28 years old. Such a short life. But a good life. I did not know Kyle other than an on air interview with him and how proud he was of his Canine friend.

My heart breaks for his wife and unborn child. For his parents and siblings. My husband is in Law Enforcement. There isn't a day that he is working that I don't think "what if", he is very brave and and loves his job. His reply to me is "Jackie, you can walk out the front door and be hit by car" None of us know Why things happen to good people, and it really isn't worth spending hours questioning our God.

Today there will be thousands of people saying their final goodbyes to a hero. To all of our "lifesavers" Thank you.  You lay your life on the line everyday. Rest In Peace Kyle. You are in the hands of a hero now.
