“As the father-in-law of a second generation police officer in Memphis, I know first-hand the dangers all of our first responders experience every single day. Knowing of my personal experience, my co-writing friend, Irene Kelley, shared her title and idea for the song, “Thin Blue Line”. We wrote it as a tribute to my son-in-law and law enforcement officers everywhere. THANK YOU for your service and God Bless all of you!” Jerry Salley
