Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Brother, we never met but you were an LET when I was a new deputy with LASD. I've heard many nice, kind things said about you from those who worked with you. Like a true warrior you moved towards the gunfire to protect others. I am proud to call you my brother. God bless and we will never forget.

TO THE FAMILY, FRIENDS AND COLLEAGUES OF DALLAS POLICE DEPARTMENT, SENIOR CORPORAL LORNE AHRENS.

My heart is filled with great sadness at learning of the lost of your loved one and fellow Officer.
We in the law enforcement community are a family, although our uniforms may be a different style and vary in color, a badge, shield or star may be pinned upon our chest.
Our areas of enforcement may vary but our goals are the same, to Serve and Protect our communities. We consist of many different agencies from across the nation, for we are: Municipal Police Officers, Sheriff's Deputies, State Police Investigators, State Highway Patrol Troopers, Conservation Police Officers, College Campus Police Officers, Correctional Officers and Federal Agents just to name a few.
We patrol small towns, large cities, college campuses, county roads, state highways, state prisons, county jails, state parks and the United States Borders.
Whether active duty or retired, we are one family, a Law Enforcement Family, the thin blue line of protectors, brothers and sisters bonded together by HONOR, SERVICE and PRIDE.
Daily we honor our fallen brothers and sisters never forgetting their sacrifice and the sacrifice of their families.
Daily our position is clear that we will Serve and Protect our communities without faltering and with no hesitation.
Daily we show pride in our chosen profession LAW ENFORCEMENT, for we willingly walk the line of good over evil facing the unknown with courage keeping our trust and our faith in GOD.
We know that evil roam these streets and at any moment in the course of performing our duties the ultimate sacrifice might be required of us in the service to our community, for Law Enforcement is not a job but a calling and only a few will make the decision to commit to that calling to serve for some will give all that they have.
ALL LIVES MATTER! and LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS should be respected - If we don't respond to that call for help, or investigate that suspicious subject, or stop for that stranded motorist, or rush to that call of shots fired then who will ?
CORPORAL AHRENS
You did not die in vain.
You sacrificed your life in the service to the citizens in the City of Dallas in the State of Texas with HONOR, PRIDE and DISTINCTION.
I'm proud to have worn the uniform of a law enforcement officer like you did.
I'm proud to have pinned the badge upon my chest like you did.
I'm proud to have served and protected my community as you did.
I'm proud to call you my BROTHER!
I commend you my fallen brother for making the ultimate sacrifice in the performance of your duty.
For you left us doing what you chose to do.
Performing a job you were trained to do.
Upholding the oath you swore to do.
Most importantly doing what you loved to do..........Serving and Protecting your community with Honor and Pride making a better and safer place for us all.
FOR THOSE WHO FIGHT FOR IT, "LIFE HAS A FLAVOR THE PROTECTED WILL NEVER KNOW".
FINAL CALL
Corporal Ahrens status........Corporal Ahrens status........... Corporal Ahrens status............Attention All Units.............. Dallas Police Department, Senior Corporal Lorne Ahrens having served the citizens in the City of Dallas in the State of Texas with HONOR, PRIDE and DISTINCTION is now 10-42.
Rest in Peace my fallen Brother, YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN!!!

Corporal Ahrens, thank you sir for your service. The domestic terrorist racist coward who murdered you obviously could not face you man to man to settle any problems he had with the police. I am hoping his family gets his remains in several pieces, as he deserves no respect from anyone. We will keep your family and Department in our thoughts. Please watch over us as we carry on.
