We present a beautiful and heartfelt commemorative poem in honour of all those Vancouver police officers tragically killed in-the-line-of-duty. The poem was written by a currently serving member of the VPD, Sgt. S. Gibson.

"This poem was written on Remembrance Day November 11th, 2000. I was thinking about the Police Memorial project and was also inspired by Remembrance Day. I woke up that morning with the poem running through my head and wrote it down. I wanted it to be as if the officers killed were talking from beyond the grave to the new police officers and their spirit was watching over them."
