Dear Marano Family,

Chris will be missed, but not forgotten. We remember him always for his selfless devotion to duty, his service to his country, and ultimate sacrifice upon the altar of freedom. His pursuit of the guilty and protection of the innocent has made a difference in hundreds of lives and our world is better for it.

While we all grieve at this loss, we rejoice that Chris lived and we knew him. He was an outstanding officer and a fine young man. Rest in peace brother, your family is in good hands, and we will carry the torch.

"As iron sharpens iron, so does one man another."

God bless the public safety workers who labor and toil daily to make our communities safe.

His Judgment Day:
The officer stood and faced his God, Which must always come to pass. He hoped his shoes were shinning, Just as brightly as his brass.
"Step forward now, Officer, How shall I deal with you? Have you always turned the other cheek To my church have you been true?"
The officer squared his shoulder and said, "No, Lord, I guess I aint, 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 tough.
But I never took a penny That wasn't mine to keep.. Though I worked a lot of overtime, when the bills got too steep.
And I never passed a cry for help Though at times I shook with fear. And sometimes, God forgive me, I've wept an unmanly tear.
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 here, 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 often trod. As the officer waited quietly for the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now, Officer. You've borne your burdens well. Come walk a beat on heaven's streets, You've done your time in hell"
