Officer David M. Romero, Sir may you rest in peace. My deepest condolences to your family and members of the CHP.
Thank you for your 23 years of dedicated service to the citizens of your district. I too, am a twenty-two years veteran of the El Paso County Sheriff's Office, Texas. What a tragic and unfair accident for a veteran peace officer about to retire.

“REMEMBER ME”
Law enforcement officers are, indeed, a special breed of people. Ask anyone on the street and they will tell you that they would not have our jobs for anything in the world. It takes something special to do what we do and at the same time be able to even contemplate retirement. We try to be optimists. Unfortunately, there are a few of us who will never make that date with retirement. By the very nature of our job, we are at risk everyday of losing our lives, either at the hand of some deranged individual or in some other situation that we, by virtue of our occupation, may be unable to avoid. Some people have recognized the hazardous duties we involve ourselves in, the risks we take, and the pride we take in accomplishing that job. There is National Law Enforcement Week, dedicated to us who gladly accept the responsibility of protecting the citizens in our respective jurisdictions. National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Day is dedicated to those who gave their lives in the line of duty. These are but a two examples of remembrances specifically for law enforcement personnel. Remembrances that come but once a year. We should remind fellow officers of another type of remembrance, one that will last a lifetime. Sooner or later, a doctor will pronounce us dead. It is inevitable. Regardless of whatever happens, death is the end we will all have to face.

To the family, friends and co-workers of Officer Romero, My condolences and deepest sympathy goes out to you.

UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN

When dawn's first light
turned into day,
Who knew an angel
would soon call me away
And Though I didn't get the chance
to say goodbye,
I leave you three things
to help you get by.

I leave you COURAGE,
that you might see your heart can rebuild a world without me.

I leave you FAITH,
that you might believe the spirit will survive no matter how much we grieve.

And I leave you LOVE,
to comfort you in its healing embrace until we meet again in another place.
