Reflections for Police Officer III Louis Villalobos, Jr.
Hey, Louie! Checkin' in.....You're always remembered. We went out on 3/17 and toasted you here on the Carolina coast. It's not quite the same without all the guys with us like in CA, but we do it every year. Missing you as always.

24 years has gone by since you left us, Lou.
I think about you often, especially every St. Patrick's Day.
You helped me through a difficult personal time as a friend and confidant, and your untimely passing has left a huge hole in my heart, as I know it did for your family and the many others who were very close to you.
I wanted you to know I have not forgotten you, my Friend.

Louie, just thinking of you. We had some great times working 77th, Metro and SWAT. You were one of a kind. Loved you like a brother. I have a great story for your family I'd like to share with them if they would email me. Miss you.

Hey Louie! Remembering you today and always. You are always missed. Wish you were still here, bro. Lots of guys do. 21 years ago today. Hard to believe and still hard to accept.

Remembering some great times back in the 70’s and 80’s along with Klep and many others. You were a good friend and confidant. A toast to the good ole days.

Hey bro, just stoppin' in . You are remembered always. Me and the missus toasted you at the house because of this lockdown. That's okay. Still means the same thing. R.I.P.

Going through some old photos & found your pix sitting on that damn rock in some really old looking running shorts! I remember working in the WC office when you had the accident. One of those memories that just won't fade. Just know that people will never forget you.

Hey Louie, we got together this year at a nice place in Upland called Charlie's Stars & Stripes to tip a few for you. Great food, great drinks, great company, and a hot waitress who was also really nice and put up with us old street dawgs. We had your photo on the table so you wouldn't feel left out. It was me, Nick Savala, Jimmy Perkins, Cliff Armas, and Leonard on the phone from Canada. Eighteen years now. When we hit twenty years, we'll need to do something outrageous.

Louie, we were teammates in D-platoon for a long time, and fellow marines (even if you never let me forget I was an officer). Your passing hit hard. It's heartwarming to see your children reaching out to you because we know how much they meant to you.

I never met you my brother in law but have read the tributes and know you must have been a helluva marine and cop. I gave your son some shooting lessons and we even shot your back up piece. Sorry we never met.

Louie, sixteen years since you left us to stand with God in Heaven. Last night, me, Nick, Cliff, and Jimmy hooked up in Corona to toast your memory and talk about a helluva lot of great times with you. We know you are watching over us. We called Leonard, but consistent with life experience and maturity, we didn't call him on the house phone at zero dark thirty like we used to. You are missed and thought about all the time down through the years. Rest in peace, my old friend. I'll see you again someday.....but not yet.....not yet.

Hey Louie, almost that time again sadly enough. This Sunday we'll hang at Heroes in Riverside to toast your memory. Rest easy, bro.
