R.I.P. Brother!! You will not be forgotten, You are a hero to all of us!!!!

Not often enough do we thank those who serve to protect us
Not often enough do we realize their jobs are dangerous
Not often enough do we think of their families that they leave each day
To serve and protect and keep our own out of harm's way.
Not often do we acknowledge these men and women in blue
Not often do we just walk up to them for no reason and say thank you
But when a tragedy strikes our own community and one of our own has fallen
It is a most grievous crime, from us; one of our own was stolen
Their commitment to their job is unparalleled to our own
And while we are at work or with our families at home
They are patrolling the streets and at any moment could pay the greatest price
The price that sometimes comes with the job, the price of the ultimate sacrifice
For your sacrifice, 34th Pct. auxiliary unit thanks you.
And to your family our prayers and may God Bless you
And may God keep safe all the brave heroes who choose to wear blue
Our families are safer because of you.

I was very shocked and saddened to hear about this incident last night. It just shows how dangerous the work of NYPD is, including auxliaries. I just wish people would recognize the work of the members of the NYPD that keep our streets calm.

Thank you for serving your community

May you rest in peace

Rest in Peace Officer Pekearo. It's your turn to patrol the streets of heaven. I left my position as Reserve Sergeant with the St. Francis Police Department in Minnesota to spend more time with my family, but I miss it everyday! Yesterday you gave your life to try to save someone else. I thoughts and prayers go out to your family.

I am a retired NYC Health & Hospitals Corporation Police Officer as well as a former Nassau County Auxiliary Police Officer. Nicholas Ididn't know you but I will never forget you or your partner Eugene. I will work very hard to right this wrong that denied you and your partner the "Right" to carry firearms. Rest in peace and G-d Bless You. You will never be forgotten by me and may G-d grant peace to your family and to that of Eugene's.

This job is tough enough to do as a full time employee. But to do it voluntarilly says something for the job, and the individual who does it. Our thoughts are with the NYPD and the family of Aux. Officer Pekearo.

Rest in peace brother for we will take it from here. Watch over your loved ones and keep them safe.

Here is a small part of something I wrote:

Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death and though I mark on duty, my calls unknown, I fear no evil, for the majority are with me, nor do I worry of my own safety, all of this I do for the citizens of my community. An Officer’s family can be filled with worry and though they are strong, they know that their loved one may be placed in harms way.

Though I have made mistakes, accept me, as I accept you and show me the way …..Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory, forever and ever. Amen.

To all Officers, risking your life for the benefit of others and who are trying to make a difference, may God bless and keep you safe, for you are the pillar of stability in our community, the keepers of our safety and the ones who we will call if we ever need help. Hug your family, let them know what you feel inside, for they are the strength behind you, which allows you to endure. Lift your head high, knowing you have done your job.
