Officer Ortiz, a police officer should be remembered not by how he died but by how he lived! A brave man has left to secure a safe path for the rest of us to follow. Thank you for your 15 years of commitment to law enforcement service, to your family, and to the Corpus Christi Police Department. Our country is a little less safe without you. Rest in Peace Brother!

Officer Ortiz, our world is full of evil people, and yet, for many years, you dedicated your life to protecting others that they may be safe. Our Lord, who sees all and knows all, will reward you abundantly for your courage, dedication and selfless service. My heart breaks for the sorrow that your loved ones are experiencing.

Heavenly Father, You are Compassionate and Merciful. None of America's Peace Officers leave home without the fear of not returning at the end of their assigned watch. It is a fear that haunts them daily. Unfortunately, the worst does sometimes come to pass, and lives a left shattered. Lord God, bless and keep the hearts and souls of those who have lost loved ones in the Line-of-Duty. Wipe away the tears from their eyes. Soothe their pain and bind up their emotional wounds through the wounds of Your beloved Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. In His mighty and holy Name, and by His authority, I pray. Amen.
A Scripture Verse from "The Law Enforcement Officer's Bible":
"Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted." [Matthew 5:4 CSB]
