Reflections for Detective Mario Moreno
Rest in peace brother. You will not be forgotten.

Mario Moreno was one of the finest officers I've ever known. He was one of my closest friends, and he was a devoted husband and father to his family. He loved his job and took it seriously, albeit with a healthy dose of humor. If you were a criminal, Mario was a genuine threat. If you were a fellow officer, you could rest assured he had your back. San Antonio has lost one of its fiercest protectors. Mario, may God bless you and your family....

I AM A WARRIOR
by Jon F. Hooper
I fight not for glory or fame,
For they are momentary.
I fight for those who can't.
I fight for Justice.
I fight for the oppressed and the down trodden.
And if I should lose my life for these just causes, then I have no regrets,
For I serve to protect the innocent.
It matters not where or when,
For evil knows no boundaries.
Be it fire, flood, or the threat of tyranny,
I will not flee.
Justice is my weapon.
Faith is my shield.
Hope is my armor.
Cry not at my passing,
For it was my Honor to fight for you.
Shed not tears of sorrow,
But tears of joy,
For now,
I stand with God.
