Our Greatest Fear

Yet once again the Thin Blue Line is diminished,
an officer’s final tour of duty is finished.
"Officer down", it’s our greatest fear,
and once again, I hold back a tear.
They patrol in the state, city, county and town,
in uniforms colored white, green, blue and brown.
The shape of their badges may vary,
but it’s a symbol that they all, proudly carry.
They leave for work with a kiss goodbye,
but some don’t come home, no matter how hard they try.
To uphold the law is the job that they pick,
with such high aspirations, why must some die so quick?
They leave behind loved ones, family and friends,
after their lives have met tragic ends.
Some die in crashes, others hearts not too stout,
to many have been lost when gunshots ring out.
Our Heavenly Father has called them home,
no more these dark streets do they roam.
Through trial and error they have given their best,
please Lord, now grant them eternal rest.
Yet once again the Thin Blue Line is diminished,
an officer’s final tour of duty is finished.
"Officer down", it’s our greatest fear,
and once again I hold back a tear.

I started my law enforcement career in 1998 with the Village of Port Dickinson Police Dept. It's a very small department and small community, which makes this tragedy so much worse. I never thought anything like this would happen in Port Dickinson, which just shows how dangerous our jobs truly are. Aldo, I never knew you personally, but all I've heard is what a great guy and great officer you were. Which makes me proud to say I once was a police officer in Port Dickinson.
Your loss is so senseless and WE will be sure that justice is served and that you did not die in vain. We ask that you watch over us and keep us safe. Rest in peace, brother - WE WILL NEVER FORGET. To the Rossi family : please know that Aldo will never be forgotten and that you may call on any of us at anytime. We will keep you all in our thoughts and prayers. May you find strength knowing Aldo died doing what he loved, protecting others. God Bless you all.

What a terrible tragedy to have happened to such a terrific man. Aldo was so excited to become a police officer. It breaks my heart to see this happen to someone like him.

We all recall you gave your best.
You did your job, now you can rest.
Your comrades now can cover your post
as you take your place with the Heavenly Host.

God Bless Our Fallen Brothers & Sisters.
