It is with deep, profound and heartfelt condolences that I extend my sympathy to the tragedy that took the lives of both, Officer's Gil Vega and Lesley Zerebny, of the Palm Springs Police Department; my prayers are with the family and many friends that will mourn their passing!

We Salute Our Fallen Brother

For I’m already being poured out like a drink offering,
And the time has come for my departure; I have fought
The good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.
Now there is in store for me a crown of righteousness…2 Timothy 4:6-8.

The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will
Of God lives forever…1 John 2:17

Today we stand to salute our brothers’ departure from here
He’ll leave behind a family and those who hold him dear
In a career he served where all give some, yet he gave his all
He leaves this earth behind as he received his final call

The risks he faced on this final tour was one of a unique kind
His bravery surpassed his courage at last he leaves a world behind
Everyday he’ll be remembered for all the special things he did
He patrolled the streets as Gods chosen servant to him goodbye we bid

Don’t worry our brother in blue you’ll always be a part of our mind
We’ll always recall the bright face you bore one that’s so very kind
The hours you spent making a difference protecting all mankind
You stood your watch and kept the faith of one so hard to find

We Salute Our Fallen Brother for the impeccable job he done
You walked tall on duty with integrity second to no one
The beat you worked was like a battlefield in a society filled with change
Yet you never wavered in your commitment to a job that somehow was strange

The flag of our nation will not fly at half mast across the entire USA
But trust us dear brother with taped badges we honor you this way
A symbol of a fallen brother that graced our presence everyday
We’ll always salute the job you performed before you went away!

More shameful deaths at the hands of cowards. My heart goes out to the family and fellow officers of these brave heroes defending our lives. They have gave the ultimate sacrifice for all of us. May God be with the family. And God protect all of our LEO's out there. All of us, the public should be outraged at the murder of the Police all over. And the treatment given them by our government officials. Most of Americans support you officers and their families. You are in our prayers.

Tragic. But what would we do without officers like Lesley Zerebny and Jose Vega? We owe them a debt which cannot be repaid.
