Lord Jesus, as we watch our nation’s brave law enforcement officers succumb to the wicked and evil in this world, it becomes difficult for us to pick up and move forward. Our communities are on the brink of exploding with tension. In light of the law enforcement officers who are no longer with us, I pray for endurance for our communities and law enforcement agencies. Carry us through this time of strife, that through our struggles, our bonds may grow even more unbreakable. In Your mighty and holy name, I pray. Amen.

“And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” Then I said, “Here am I! Send me.” [Isaiah 6:8 ESV]

“Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.” [Psalm 23:4 ESV]

You are always missed RIP Mark.
Wished you had the opportunity to hold and play with your granddaughter who is now 5 years old. Your last Christmas was the day she was born. We are strong and doing okay

Your widow,

One of the many amazing men and women who gave so selflessly and heroically that day and the many days that followed. Rest in peace always knowing that your service and sacrifice will never, ever be forgotten by your law enforcement brethren.

Mark, we never worked together on the job, but I had the pleasure of working with you at the NYSE Security dept. I'll never forget the laughs we had. Rest easy "Trebek" until we meet again.

Det. Mkwanazi,
On today, the 3rd anniversary of your death I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for the citizens of New York City and Ocean Beach And our Country as well. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Rest in peace brother. Over 160+ of us are now gone. We trusted the EPA in charge, and if any one of us have a trust in the government, better look at the native Americans. Thank you for your service and sacrifice. I'll see you on the other side.
