Reflections for Trooper First Class Aaron Pelletier

I had the pleasure working with trooper first class Pelletier. Before he was a state trooper he worked for the CT DOC for 2.5 years. Aaron was the most genuine person. He truly loved his job.
To his beloved family, I’m so sorry for your loss. He was one of a kind and had an impact on everyone he came in contact with.

Heavenly Father, so many of America's Peace Officers, who are on the front lines to protect us, never make it back home to their families. I pray for these fallen American Peace Officers, Lord God, who gave their lives for us. I now pray for the families of these fallen heroes, who have to now endure life without their loved ones. Lord God, society tries to move forward, but there is always bloodshed occurring. I now come before Your Throne of Mercy, Glory, and Grace begging You for peace within our nation, the United States of America, according to Your mighty and holy will. I plead for Your divine intervention to quiet our hearts and unify our communities. Stop the violence that occurs amid our cities, O Lord. I thank You for all the peace officers who have died protecting us, and ask that You send an everlasting peace so that America's Peace Officers on the streets may be safe and return home to their loved ones at the end of their assigned shifts. In Christ Jesus' mighty and holy Name, and by His authority, I pray. Amen.
