To the friends and family of Sgt. Mark Renninger I express my most heartfelt sympathy. Thank you for your service and my prayers will be with you and your family at this most difficult time. I will pray for your children who's lost is unimaginable and for your wife who must live on without you. I will also pray for your mother and father and siblings as the loss is so difficult to wrap your mind around. God bless you all.

I was so saddened to hear of the loss of Sgt Renninger and his fellow officers. And to add insult to injury, the CBS evening news on Sunday decided to report on the Tiger Woods story before the loss of these fine officers. Condolences to Sgt Renninger's family and co-workers. We feel your loss down here in Texas.

"Blood Upon the Shield"
Blood Upon The Shield
Confrontation in an alley. The Centurion does not yield.
But this time the good guy loses;
there is blood upon the shield.
And the mournful sounds of bagpipes
play out across the land,
drowned out by the sobs of a lonely young wife
and a child too young to understand.
While the killer pleads his case in court,
the thin blue line is one man short.
And we're one step closer to society's fall;
another cop's name is engraved on the wall.
Another state funeral, with an army in blue,
and we know it could've been me and it could've been you.
We all look ahead to what the future has in store,
front line troopers in a country that's at war.
At war with itself and at war with its cops and we're
out there every day 'cause the battle never stops.
It's not the way it is on TV shows or like
we learned in school; no cool music in the background,
no playing by the "rules;"
We're disillusioned warriors,
but for right we'll always strive.
We just pray that at the end of our stress-filled day
we'll get back home alive.
You stand out on the corner
ignoring the insults and the stares,
close to the point of believing that no one really cares,
when a six year-old boy walks over after watching
you for awhile, reaching out to shake your hand,
on his face a friendly smile.
To him you are a hero,
a protector of our land, and he wants
to learn about you,
as a cop and as a man.
And when he asks you why your badge is covered
by a black elastic band,
tell him about our Brother
A cop who made a stand.

In a world of imposters, Mark was the genuine article. He had that rare combination of intelligence, ethics, ability, humanity, and honor. I miss him, as I'm sure all who had the pleasure of serving with him over the years will miss him. His family can be proud of the man he was, and the manner in which he carried out his duties

SGT Renninger, Rest in peace you probably had no idea what was coming that quiet Sunday morning. You were probably briefing your officers on what to expect during their tour. My sincere condolences to your wife and family and your department. Your service and dedication will be remembered for a long time to come. Thanks Terry F. Zech
