Ofc. Ayala thank you for your dedicated service to Montgomery County. Even though I only had a brief encounters with you it was an honor to see how important fellow officers were to you by responding to that call. You and your family have been a constant thought of mine since Sunday morning. Your tour is over but your memory and name will last forever with this department.

I am really saddened about this..my prayers go out especially to the family and to the police dept. whom I have the utmost respect for.
RIP Officer Ayala...because of you the world was a better place. It takes a very special person to go out and do what he or she can to make the world a better and safer place. You are a hero for all you have done and stood for. God's blessings on your soul and peace to your family thru good memories of all you have done.

My Dearest Family and Friends
Somethings I'd like to say but first of all to let you know that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from Heaven where I dwell with Our Lord above. where there's no more tears or sadness just eternal Love. Please don't be unhappy because I'm out of sight, remember that I'm with you every morning,noon and Night.
The Day I had to leave you when my Life on earth was through God picked me up and hugged me and He said I welcome you.
It's good to have you back again, You were missed while you were gone. As for your Dearest Family they'll be here later on.
I need you here so badly as part of my big plan. Theres so much we have to do to help our Moral Man.
Then God gave me a list of things that He wished for me to do, and foremost on that list of mine is to watch and care for you.
I'll be beside you everyday and through out the years, And when your sad. I'm standing there to wipe away your tears.
When You lie in bed at night the day's chores put to flight God and I are close you in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on Earth and all the loving years, because your only human they are bound to bring you tears.
Please don't be afraid to cry, it does releive the pain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned, But if I were to tell you You wouldn't understand.One thing is for certain, though my life on Earth is over I'm closer to you now than I ever was before.
To My many Friends, Trust God knows what is best.I'm still not far away from you I'm just beyond the crest.
So, If you can help somebody who is in sorrow or in pain, then you can say to God at night my day was not in vain.
And now I am contented that with my life. it was worth while,Knowing as I passed along the way I made somebody smile.
If you meet somebody who is down and feeling low just lend a hand and pick him up as on your way you go.
When Your walking down the street and you've got me on your mind just know Im walking in your footstep only a half a step behind.
And if you feel a gentel breeze or wind upon your face thats me just giving you a great big hug or just a soft embrace.
I will always love you from the land way up above We'll be in touch again soon
PS God sends his Love.

Officer Ayala you will be missed greatly by everyone in our agency. Words can't express how much sorrow I feel to lose another brother from MCP. You laid down your life doing your job, and I praise you as a hero. You didn't know, but God had bigger plans for you....he needed your help in heaven. God bless you brother for the work you accomplished. My prayers will always be with your wife, your son, your parents and your unborn children. Your tour is over, rest well brother. We have the watch from here.

Hector- mi amigo. I can't believe that when we were joking around last week, that it was going to be the last time I would get a chance to talk to you. It is never easy going to a police officer's funeral, but it will be even tougher for you. You always put a smile on my face each and every time you translated for me when I had to administer an Intoximeter Test. You truly had your own method, which was one of a kind.
I know that you are in good hands now, and with my friends Mike Nickerson and Luke Hoffman. I hope that the three of you can keep an eye on us from time to time, and rest easy- we have the watch from here. We will miss you, but never forget you.
