Thank you for your service Brother. My thoughts & prayers go out to your wife, children & family


Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there; I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am the sun on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circling flight.
I am the soft starlight at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there; I did not die.

Oh gracious Father we are here with heavy hearts and tears of grief at the loss of our brother Christopher Marano from the actions instituted by a person high on drugs and disregarding Your command as given by our brother Paul in his book of Romans chapter 13. Father Christopher leaves behind four children who will forever have this day in their minds as the saddest day of their lives for the length of their life. At this same time Father You know of the grief and tears being shed by not only Christopher's family but by all of his brothers and sisters in law enforcement especially those from his unit in the Department of Public Safety in Arizona. We seek Father Your loving and healing grace to set into the hearts and souls of all who grieve our loss of Christopher, giving them peace and comfort during this stressful period of mourning and grief. Let all feel Your love in their hearts and know Christopher has joined with all our brothers and sisters who have also paid the ultimate in your heavenly kingdom. Father as Christopher served with honor, respect, dignity and integrity let all who love our profession be filled with love for his family and his brothers and sisters in law enforcement. We come to You this day Father in the name of Your son and our Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen.
