Reflections for Deputy Sheriff Daniel Jess Lobo, Jr.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I NEVER DREAMED IT WOULD BE ME,
MY NAME FOR ALL ETERNITY.
RECORDED HERE AT THIS HALLOWED PLACE,
ALAS MY NAME, NO MORE MY FACE.
"IN THE LINE OF DUTY" I HEAR THEM SAY,
MY FAMILY NOW HAS THE PRICE TO PAY.
MY FOLDED FLAG STAINED WITH TEARS,
WE ONLY HAD THOSE FEW SHORT YEARS.
THE BADGE NO LONGER ON MY CHEST,
I SLEEP NOW IN ETERNAL REST.
MY SWORD I PASS TO THOSE BEHIND,
AND PRAY THEY KEEP THIS IN MIND.
I NEVER THOUGHT IT WOULD BE ME,
AND WITH HEAVY HEART ON BENDED KNEE,
I ASK FOR ALL THOSE HERE FROM THE PAST,
PLEASE GOD, "LET MY NAME BE THE LAST!"

You will be missed.

I have known Danny for 30 years, when he and his family moved onto Evart St. in Montclair we became friends. I was 3 years older than him but we still had some great times together. There are many stories that I could share but my hands would be killing me. I will share them with Danny's girls as they get older so they will know more about him.

Danny, I will always be there for your family..


Your Friend,

Hey Danny,
It's me the white boy. I miss you so much my brother and regret that I took the day off, otherwise I would have spent time with you that day. We will continue to ride and make you proud. I know you were looking after me last Sunday, as I'm ok. Tell Ron Hi for me.

To the wife and three daughters of Deputy Sheriff Lobo, I offer my deepest condolences. When law enforcement officers are in pursuit, with lights flashing, one would expect that motorists would be alert enough to keep out of their way. Many untimely sacrifices might not have been made had the public been aware of their surroundings. I hope that God will comfort this family, and all those who knew, loved and served with this officer, during this sad time. May God's perpetual light shine upon him and may he rest in His eternal peace.

Danny,
Well now we've lost four in just over a year and it gets harder everytime. I pray that we don't lose anymore. I know you are with the others up there keeping watch over the rest of us here. Thank you for that and for being a true hero to us all. I pray that your family finds some peace and solace in knowing that you died a true hero not only to the public you served but to your fellow officers.

I along with several other Deputies and Officers started off as Police Explrers with you as our advisor. All the training,fun competitions, and ride alongs, is what inspired all of us to be where we are biw.

I still remember the day when I retunred to the Rancho station as a Deputy and got to work with you, one of my mentors. The funny jokes you would say that I needed to give the real deputy back their unifom and put my explorer suite back on was always funny.

Danny, I owe a big part of my career to you and the training you gave me. I hope I too also have a chance to make a differece like you did. And now that I am an Explorer advisor, I will return all the trainng and good times to the up coming deputies.

Danny,Luke, Matt, and I will never forget you and all the good times we had.

I miss you Brother and will never forget you. 11x11

I met Danny when we were 10 years old at Monte Vista Elementary School in Montclair, Ca. We were friends for many years and started dating in High School when we were seventeen. We were young, but so in love with each other. We did everything and went everywhere together, he was my best friend. We married and had two beautiful daughters, Kiley and Kadie. Our marriage didn't last, but the love for each other as the Mommy and Daddy of our two daughters did. Danny will remain in my heart forever and I will continue to see him everyday when I look in our daughters eyes. Thank you for the prayers for all the family. Mel

I went to school with Danny from K to 12th grade. The last time I saw Danny he was doing well and happy to be with the sheriff's dept. My thoughts go out to his family. It is a hard road ahead. But perhaps it will be made easier to know Danny is looking down on you from above.

Deputy Lobo

You will never be forgotten, my fallen brother. I was privileged to be among seven officers representing our department at your services, today.

I know you were proud to see the ocean of uniforms in the chapel, and to see the miles of patrol vehicles and motors with lights ablaze! And, I know you could feel the pain we all carry in our hearts. We will miss you, but let you go, per your wishes.

You are a hero, and you have left thousands of people who knew you or dealt with you a treasure chest of memories!

God surely has blessed you, my brother and you can be sure that He is watching over your immediate and extended family.

These are never easy to write, especially when the officer worked for you. Danny was one of those guys that had a passion for the job. He seemed extremely happy when I saw him riding his bike at an event some time ago. Danny also had a passion for his girls. Since my retirement, I was unaware of his newest daughter. I know when the time comes her mother will tell her what a brave man her daddy was. Danny, take care and know we will all miss you. terribly.

To the friends and family of Daniel Lobo, and on behalf of my Brother-in-law, a retired SBSD Deputy, John Brandon, we both send our deepest regrets.

As for Daniel's partners, there is no blame to carry by anyone for "not being there sooner."

As we all know, Daniel will never be forgotten, only missed. His stories and memory will get you through this.

Never knowing you Deputy Lobo, I am sorry for that. But knowing of you through my Brother in law, makes this hit a little closer to home. When I check this site on a daily basis, I look for my own State and then for the SBSD Family.

Brett, Roy - Take care of yourselves. As for the rest of the SBSD, again, John and I send our prayers.
