To Police Officer Jose Somohano and his family:

My family and I wish to extend our sincerest and heart felt sympathies to the family of Officer Somohano. Thank you for paying with your life to try to make this world a better a place. And while your family and this community mourns your loss, I believe you are in a better and safer lace...Psalm 4:8

I will lie down and sleep in peace,
for you alone, O LORD,
make me dwell in safety

The Lord will look out for your loved ones and will grant them a peace that surpasses all understanding until you are reunited with them again.

I never knew you, but I honor you today for your sacrifice...bravery...heroism...I didn't know what to do to honor you except to drive with my daughter and we stood by the turnpike today and watched you drive by one last time, saluted you and prayed for you...

Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ

In Gods care you rest above,
In our hearts you rest with love,
Memories of you are ours to keep,
Our words are few but our love is deep.


Rest in Peace!

"Wife's Goodnight Prayer"

Dear God as I ready myself for a night of rest
take care of my police officer he's the best.
Watch over him as he works the streets,
With danger and and violence surrounding his beat
I pray every night he's able to come home,
because I don't want to grow old all alone.
I know I married for better or worse,
But some days God, his job is a curse.
So please hear my prayers, Dear God this night,
Because I am a police officers wife
