Reflections for Police Officer Christopher Charles Amoroso

There are but two persons who protect the sinful human race from destroying itself. One is God's Holy Spirit. The other is the Peace Officer. Without them, we would all perish at each other's hands.

You were called into this profession and our Lord and Savior has blessed you because:
According to Romans 13.1-5...
God ordains the Peace Officer’s profession.
The Peace Officer is sent by God.
The Peace Officer is vested with God's authority to enforce the law.
A Peace Officer's badge is to be honored by us, because God honors it.

You gave the ultimate sacrifice, your life for your fellow man, while serving, defending, and protecting others in your community.

Thank you for your service to America. Your efforts saved thousand that horrible day.
My thoughts and prayers go out to your family and friends. You will be in our hearts forever.

i do not know any of these wonderful men and women, but I do know one thing, they are my heroes. They are what makes America what we are today. No matter what comes, they can take it. My father is a police officer, and i can't even imagine losing him. I feel truly sorry for all those that lost a loved one in these attacks. Just remember they are watching over you, and they will always be in your heart.

I will always remember the sacrifice made by you and my brothers on that day. I saw a photo of you helping civilians from the burning building. You were tired and injured, yet you returned to help others. The bravery you displayed cannot be measured. You are certainly an Angel of God. May You, and all of the 9-11 Heroes, Rest In Peace.

I tried to attend as many funerals as I could during these darkest of days as my way of showing respect to families and coworkers of all of my brother and sister Officers and Firefighters. I cannot find the words to say how sorry I am that we have lost these great heroes. I cannot express my thanks enough for your bravery and sacrifice. My prayers are with you and all of your families......................AC

My sincere condolences to the family of Chris Amoroso.
I reflect on Chris since my maiden name and his are the same. My father changed our last o to an a, making it Amorosa, instead of Amoroso.
Our family wishes that your family can hopefully recover from this travesty..

There are many of you out there who were not blessed with the honor of knowing Chris Amoroso, I fortunately was. Though I had not seen him for several years, I mourn his loss along with the loss of my other brothers and sisters. He was a husband, a father, a son etc... He was also one of the best people I have ever met. I played with him as a kid and went to high school with him as a teen and watched him grow from a nice kid to a terrific man. He always wanted to be a hero, but what everyone doesn't know is that he already was. He gave back to his community by coaching kids and then protecting it. I just wanted to share what I know with the rest of the world, because not everyone was lucky enough to know him.

The ID tag that I've been wearing since 9/11 says Christopher is missing in action..........I was saddened to learn today that this is not the case.

My Prayers are with all the friends and family of all the officers who lost their lives on September 11, 2001.
I lost my brother tragically, Det. David Taylor, Greensboro PD, On August 7, 2001. I was in NY for my fiancee's Mother's funeral the first of Sept. I was stranded there for 3 weeks due to this atrocity. As I watched the events on TV, I cried for all those who lost their lives. But was especially emotional about the Police Officers and the Firefighters and their families, as I had just recently suffered a tragic loss myself. As I walked through the streets in the days following the attack, I cried with pride as I saw the officers on duty on all the corners in the city. I knew how hard it was for them, knowing they had lost their friends. On the Sat. following the attack I was at St. Patrick's for mass. The last 2 people to go up and take communion were 2 NYPD officers, again I cried. I hope all of you are getting the support that my family and I got when we needed it, from the Deparment. I know the comforting words and even the funny stories the officers tell us about my brother helps. I know that our loved ones who are gone from here, had a higher calling and are happy and at peace in Heaven. Hopefully we can all feel that same peace one day! God bless All of you! And God bless America!

God I don't know what to say. I intend to post this message for each and everyone of you heroes so Officer, Detective, Agent, Whatever,... I thank you. You swore to serve and to protect. Well your days of protecting us are over. But you will forever be in service. Your eternal service... the inspiration you and your fellow bothers and sisters have re-enforced in my heart, will live so long as I do. Though I will not always carry your name in the front of my mind, not in my duties as a soldier or as the police officer I plan to become when I get home, I will still always carry with me the knowledge of your sacrifice... of your heroism, of your selflessness... I will carry a samll piece of you everywhere I go. Be it with an M-16 in my hands in a strange land, or a badge on my chest in my own back yard... long after the flags come down and the nation carries on... until the day I die... you will continue to serve... as my inspiration. God bless you. God bless your family. God bless your agency. God bless FDNY. God bless all the soldiers, sailors, airmen, coast guardsmen, and marines. God bless New York City. GOD BLESS AMERICA. Thank you my brothers and sisters. I love you.
