Reflections for Sergeant Abimael Castro-Berrocales

Though I never knew him, he was part of my Law Enforcement family and I will mourn this deep loss the rest of my life. My heart aches with all the losses we have suffered, and continue to suffer, through the years. God is our only peace through such incidents. May family & friends feel the presence of the "God of all comfort" as they endure the distressing days ahead. I join you in your agonizing grief & remember you in my prayers.

Another senseless tragedy
Another day of grief,
Another day of praying
To help us find relief.

Relief from bitter anguish
Relief from rage so great,
Relief from lenient justice
Which continues to seal our fate.

Relief from heartache’s torment
As we continue on,
Oh, the awesome loss of brotherhood
Now that you are gone.

Though our hearts are deeply broken
And our tears forever flow,
There’s a comforting assurance
That now with God you go.

We know that you are welcome
Now at Heaven’s gate,
While meeting brothers & sisters
Who also met such fate.

The family of Law Enforcement
Knows no distance here or there,
And we recall in comfort
You await us there.

Castro, your sacrifice will NOT be forgotten. Thank you for your excellent service. We will miss you brother.

Castro,

Imagino que en el cielo debe haber mucha gente y dicen que allá hay calles de oro y un mar de cristal. Por esas calles de oro transitan miles de almas y el Señor necesita gente con experiencia para que le ayude a lidiar con ese TRANSITO. Por eso te llamó a tí antes que a nosotros. Algun día espero poder trabajar contigo allá.
