Reflections for Auxiliary Police Officer Nicholas Todd Pekearo

Rest, brother.
The fact that you were unarmed, yet selflessly responded to help shows the true level of your character.

Officer Pekearo, thank you sir! You and your partner are heroes. Your willingness to serve as an A/O proves your dedication. Thank you also for making the ultimate sacrifice for the citizens you protected. To the officers who got your murder, I thank you as well. I am praying that God would give the Pekearo family much of His grace to get through this very difficult time. To the NYPD family, be safe as you continue the watch!

The credit belongs to the one who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes short again and again, who knows the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause, who at best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if they fail, at least fails while daring greatly. So that their place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.
