Angel, you were my daughter's best friend, your worked together, went to school together and helped her with her car whenever she had a problem. You were always so kind and always at our house. I remember you gave me a pineapple cutter with a pineapple also. I had always wanted that. Thank you for being a good friend. Clarissa is devestated by your loss and she is driving home today to be at your funeral. God Bless your family during this hard time, my heart goes out to them with your loss. You will be missed. You always wanted to go into the Marines and become a Police Officer and you achieved both, but taken away so soon. God be with you always and watch over us from above.

TO THE FAMILY, FRIENDS AND COLLEAGUES OF EL PASO POLICE DEPARTMENT PATROLMAN ANGEL GARCIA.

My heart is filled with great sadness at learning of the lost of your loved one and fellow Officer.
We in the law enforcement community are a family.
Though we may wear different uniforms and have different badges, shields or stars pinned upon our chest.
We consist of many different agencies from across the nation, for we are Municipal Police Officers, Sheriff's Deputies, State Police Investigators, State Highway Patrol Troopers, Conservation Officers, Correctional Officers and Federal Agents just to name a few.
We patrol small towns, large cities, county roads and state highways.
Whether active duty or retired, we are one family, a law enforcement family, brothers and sisters bonded together by HONOR, SERVICE and PRIDE.
Daily we honor our fallen brothers and sisters never forgetting their sacrifice.
Daily our position is clear that we will SERVE and PROTECT our communities without faltering and with no hesitation.
Daily we show pride in our chosen profession LAW ENFORCEMENT, for we willingly walk the line of GOOD over EVIL facing the unknown with COURAGE keeping our trust and faith in GOD.
We know that evil roam these streets and at any moment in the course of performing our duties the ultimate sacrifice might be required of us in the service to our community, for law enforcement is not a job but at calling and only a few will make the decision to commit to that calling to serve for some will give all that they have.
I commend you my fallen brother for making the ultimate sacrifice in the performance of our duty.
For you left us doing what you chose to do.
Performing a job you were trained to do.
Upholding the oath you swore to do.
Most importantly doing what you loved to do........SERVING and PROTECTING your community with HONOR and PRIDE making a better and safer place for us all.

FINAL CALL
OFFICER GARCIA STATUS........OFFICER GARCIA STATUS........OFFICER GARCIA STATUS........
ATTENTION ALL UNITS........EL PASO POLICE DEPARTMENT PATROLMAN ANGEL GARCIA HAVING SERVED THE CITIZENS OF EL PASO IN THE STATE OF TEXAS WITH HONOR, PRIDE AND DISTINCTION IS NOW 10-42.
Rest in Peace my fallen Brother, YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN !!!
