Lizzy, there isn't a day that goes by that I dont think about you and the ultimate sacrifice you made. Today is a day that I will never forget. I still remeber the CD's you told me that you bought and when I hear that one special song it actually puts a smile on my face because it always comes on the radio at just the right time.(alright,alright,alright,alright)Lizzy you were always a friend in the true sense of the word, you are a very special person to alot of different people. Kat planted some very beautiful flowers at your memorial at the station. She was remebering how she would always ask us to go get her a chi tea when she was pregnant. We laughed about it but then we realized thats how we got to know each other and know we are good friends and talk about how you were a part of that friendship coming about. Thats the Lizzy we know and love. Today is a date that changed my life forever, I thank you for helping me through the tough times and I try to carry on your dream of being an LAPD Officer from NEWTON STREET. Your always the third man in the car!! I LOVE YOU LIZZY.

Thinking of your loved ones today and everyday. I know the daily struggles they face without you and the terrible pain within their hearts. God, wrap your loving arms around them and help them with their grief and let them feel your presence.
Your sacrifice has not been forgotten.

Jorge is finally ingaged..but Im sure you already know and will be there on that special day.

Brother, just want to let you know I still do extra patrols by your house. I never want your wife to think we forgot her. I hit all the lights and everything. She and my wife still keep in touch. You don't know how many lives you touched. You could have been out here with us, chasing gangsters, taking guns off the street, reminding people what community service is really about. The people of this city, your family, your friends, your classmates, we just had a great guy stolen from us.

Hi Ricardo, I miss hearing you cheer on Alex at his basball games. My mom always tells him "ANGELS IN THE OUTFIELD" and she means you. I get the feeling you are there watching his games.
Missing you always my angel in blue....
