Yet another warrior has been brought home from battle on his shield. I can not express in words my sympathy to the Romero family and his close friends for their loss. I only hope that David watches over his family during this very hard time. I also hope that his close friends in law enforcement come to the aid of his family and stand at their side for it will be a very rough road ahead of them. David is a true hero and will never be forgotten.

I saw the Heavens open up.
The Earth shook with fear.
For Evil, knew of God's Army.
They are heroes, men on steel horses.

I was deeply saddened to read the memorial for Officer David Romero. As I am a retired motor officer I think it's safe to say that he left this world doing what he loved.
It is my prayer that the family, friends and co-workers find some sense of peace during this most difficult time.
May God keep safe from harm the men and women of the California Highway Patrol.
