What a tragedy. A young deputy just starting his career and his life taken by a coward. Rest in peace Deputy Montano and may God bless your soul, your brother and family, as well as your fellow officers. Your watch though short, is over now. As you stand next to God, watch over those of us still on watch.

THE POLICEMAN’S LAST ROLE CALL

THE POLICEMAN STOOD AND FACED HIS GOD, WHICH MUST ALWAYS COME TO PASS. HE HOPED HIS SHOES WERE SHINING, JUST AS BRIGHTLY AS HIS BRASS. "STEP FORWARD NOW, POLICEMAN. HOW SHALL I DEAL WITH YOU? HAVE YOU ALWAYS TURNED THE OTHER CHEEK? TO MY CHURCH HAVE YOU BEEN TRUE?"

THE POLICEMAN SQUARED his shoulders and said, "No, Lord, I guess I ain’t. Because those of us who carry badges can’t always be a Saint. I’ve had to work most Sundays, and at times my talk was rough, and sometimes I’ve been violent because the streets are awfully tough. But I never took a penny that wasn’t mine to keep, though I worked a lot of overtime when the bills just got to steep. And I never passed a cry for help, though times I shook with fear. And sometimes, God forgive me, I’ve wept many unmanly tears. I know I don’t deserve a place among the people here, they never wanted me around except to calm their fear. If you’ve a place for me Lord, it needn’t be so grand. I never expected or had too much, but if you don’t, I’ll understand."


There was silence all around the throne where the Saints had often trod. As the policeman waited quietly, for the judgement of his God. "Step forward now, policeman, you’ve borne your burdens well. Come walk a beat on Heaven’s streets, you’ve done your time in hell."


You served your country and department well.
Rest in Peace Brother

You make me proud that there are people in the world like you that go the extra mile to help people.

Officers like you make me proud of the profession that I am going into.

Thank You

Rest in Peace, brother. You won't be forgotten.

Our Hearts break for the Montano Family. One son killed the other wounded. Our Thoughts and Prayers are with you all. Both of The Montano Brother's are Heros.

God Bless Our Law Enforcement Officrs!!!
