Officer Padron,
Thank-you for keeping our community safe. While we slept...you gave your life to protect us. The words thank-you seem so small.....
God will bless you in heaven. He has his arms around your daughters and APD family.

I went to bootcamp with Padron, years ago. He was a good guy then as I'm sure he still was. I hadn't thought of him in over twenty years but seeing this really brought back some memories and I wish I had kept in touch with him. I pray for his family, his daughters and those that knew him best. God Bless.

Austin PD,
We are very sad to see what happened to Officer Padron. As Officers, we all know things can go seriously wrong at any time and in any place. We stand by you all in your time of sorrow. We lost an Officer last year, and others before then, and it hurts. We trust that the courts will have just punishment for the low life that took Officer Padron from you and his family.
May the Lord comfort all of you and Officer Padron's family.
