Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

To the family of Officer Michael Petrina, I am truly sorry for your loss. Acknowledging this sad news on Mother's Day makes it more devestating. Michael served our country proudly and the citizens of Nashville with the highest of honors. His watch is over and now he patrols the heavens to ensure the angels there are protected. "Hooah" to a great patriot and Metro Blue through and through...A soldier, a leader and a L.E.O. never get use to losing a comrade and the bagpipes that will play over you will deeply saden us so. It was an honor to stand guard for you at the M.E. office and I will continue to keep your memory alive as one of metro's finest in the line of duty.

I had the honor of attending the MNPD academy with Officer Petrina. Even when things were incredibly tough and most of us were exhausted and emotionally drained, Michael was energetic and used that energy to motivate each of us to push through and succeed. Michael's family, our agency, our city, and the entire law enforcement community is truly and irreparably lessened by his loss.
