Please remember the fallen officers we have lost. Remember the men and women who died trying to make this world a safer and better place for us all to live in. Thank you Deputy Garcia for a job well done. Please continue to watch over us and protect us as only you can. You will forever be at our side and in our hearts.

For those of you who still have loved ones with us please take the time to tell them how much you appreciate and care about them.

IF I KNEW

If I knew it would be the last time
That I'd see you fall asleep,
I would tuck you in more tightly
and pray the Lord, your soul to keep.

If I knew it would be the last time
that I see you walk out the door,
I would give you a hug and kiss
and call you back for one more.

If I knew it would be the last time
I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise,
I would video tape each action and word,
so I could play them back day after day.

If I knew it would be the last time,
I could spare an extra minute
to stop and say "I love you,"
instead of assuming you would KNOW I do.

If I knew it would be the last time
I would be there to share your day,
Well I'm sure you'll have so many more,
so I can let just this one slip away.

For surely there's always tomorrow
to make up for an oversight,
and we always get a second chance
to make everything just right.

There will always be another day
to say "I love you,"
And certainly there's another chance
to say our "Anything I can do?"

But just in case I might be wrong,
and today is all I get,
I'd like to say how much I love you
and I hope we never forget.

Tomorrow is not promised to anyone,
young or old alike,
And today may be the last chance
you get to hold your loved one tight.

So if you're waiting for tomorrow,
why not do it today?
For if tomorrow never comes,
you'll surely regret the day,

That you didn't take that extra time
for a smile, a hug, or a kiss
and you were too busy to grant someone,
what turned out to be their one last wish.

So hold your loved ones close today,
and whisper in their ear,
Tell them how much you love them
and that you'll always hold them dear

Take time to say "I'm sorry,"
"Please forgive me," "Thank you," or "It's okay."
And if tomorrow never comes,
you'll have no regrets about today.

Rest in peace Brother John, you will not be forgotten. To the family and friends I know of no way to heal the wound that has been inflicted upon you. All I know is you will fine comfort in remembering the life he lead and that he was a hero to all. Hold your family and friends close during this time of need and always remember TRUE HERO'S ARE NEVER FORGOTTEN.

Thank you for your service John, we will meet some day.

May God grant your family a comforting peace as you transcend this earthly bound. I have no doubt that God will meet you with open arms as you go forth to patrol the streets of heaven under his command. May God bless you, your family, friends, and all of the remaining peace officers who will continue the watch here in your absence. Good night, Warrior.

You left us here on Earth, to touch the face of Heaven. I would have never met you in life, but in passing you touch all of us. I give my gratitude and thanks to Deputy Constable Garcia, for your honor, compassion and servitude has made an impact on countless lives. My deepest sympathy is extended to his family in this tragic time. As you journey through this time of mourning though, try as you can to celebrate his life and think of all the things he did to bring a smile to your face. Remember he is next to you always in spirit, touching you daily, lifting you up and filling you with memories...for a person never truly passes unless they are forgotten. God bless you Constable, heaven has a new guard at the gates.

Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God. Mt 5.9
