Officer Candelari,

Rest well in the arms of the Lord.

To Your Family,

Feel His presence as God answers the prayers of many who have fallen to their knees on your behalf. Since the day of my son's death, I have carried every law enforcement officer and their family in my heart.

Every morning I go to my knees. During that time I pray, “Lord, Be with all law enforcement officers. Keep them safe and free from harm. They are your soldiers on the front line of the battle against evil. If one should fall this day - wrap their family in your loving arms. Surround them with Your angels, family and loving, caring people to comfort them. Ease their pain. Help them to mourn well. In Jesus' name, Amen”

I have lifted you and your family to God every morning for the past two years. Feel those prayers. God is with you, He knows and will ease your pain.

Such a horrible way for a fine officer to leave us. Thanks to both officers for their service and especially to Officer Candelari's family for their sacrifice. I am very familier with this stretch of highway and know how dangerous it can be. Two very brave men whose sense of duty made them stop to help a fellow human being. God bless you both and be with your families as they each coop with this terrible accident. Rest in peace Officer Candelari, and may your pardner heal quickly and completely.

Prayers for the family of Offcr. Candelari's family and colleagues in their loss. May God bring strength, comfort and peace to them as they know his sacrifice came in helping the needy. His light will shine eternal.
Prayers also for the other officer and his family in their pain and grief.

I have laid down my life in service to all of you.
I have been a part of the fabric that has held the line between your safety and your victimization. I have given my life so that others may live in peace. I have lived my life as a dedicated member of the greatest profession. There is no greater honor.

As I now become a part of the rich history of law enforcement, please remember me always for I have left behind those who loved and depended upon me.
My partners and my agency, please remember my family, their loss, and don’t let time soften your compassion for them.

You guard the gate now and I will continue my watch from above.

MAY YOU REST IN PEACE AND MAY YOUR FAMILY FIND COMFORT IN THE GOOD YOU HAVE DONE HERE ON EARTH.

We must always remain vigilant. I'm not being critical; I have been unaware of developing situations. It just wasn't my time. Officer Candelari last moments were spent helping others. If he knew the future, would he have still helped? No doubt! Police Officers are special people. When we lose a brother, it is always tragic. You will be missed.
