The policeman stood and faced his God,
Which must always come to pass.
He hoped his shoes were shining.
Just as brightly as his brass.
"Step forward now, policeman.
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My church have you been true?"
The policeman squared his shoulders and said,
"No, Lord, I guess I ain't,
Because those of us who carry badges
can't always be a saint.
I've had to work most Sundays,
and at times my talk was rough,
and sometimes I've been violent,
Because the streets are awfully tough.
But I never took a penny,
That wasn't mine to keep....
Though I worked a lot of overtime
When the bills got just too steep.
And I never passed a cry for help,
Though at times I shook with fear.
And sometimes, God forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.
I know I don't deserve a place
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around
Except to calm their fear.
If you've a place for me here,
Lord, It needn't be so grand.
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don't.....I'll understand.
There was silence all around the throne
Where the saints had often trod.
As the policeman waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now, policeman,
You've borne your burdens well.
Come walk a beat on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in hell."

To dear Carol John, Terry Sue and Children
There is no way to express the sorrow we feel from the young teenager I met when I first arrived in Culburra to the wonderful man he became, the world will be an empty place without him.
May He Rest in Peace and may the Lord care for him.

Sue & Family,
I am so saddened to hear your loss. Steve was an incredible person to work alongside. My thoughts this past week have gone back to my years at Nowra working alongside him. Remembering fondly the many hours we would spend together, even doing sober karaoke while doing licenses premises checks. The incredible programs he developed to work with so many of the Shoalhaven’s young people. The amount of lives he has influenced and touched will be his remarkable legacy. My thoughts are with you all at this very difficult time. I am sad I can’t be there to celebrate Steve’s wonderful life. All my love Belinda White x
