Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Melvin we love you and miss you at the west midnight tour. You will never be forgotten.

On behalf of my family, I extend our sincerest condolences on the grievous loss you suffered when Melvin was killed.

To the Santiago family, fellow officers, and all who call Melvin beloved, my heart goes out to all of you and may you find comfort in your loved ones and your strength in your faith. When my son was killed, the entire law enforcement community in our area embraced us in a circle of love and support, and I know you will receive the same support. It makes the unbearable less torturous, and I pray for your solace.

This reflection is sent with the utmost respect for the dedicated service Officer Santiago gave to his community and the citizens of New Jersey, and for the supreme sacrifice he and his family made on July 13, 2014.

I´m a visitor from germany and i came to this site by accident. it is absolutely tragic that this happened. What a unlucky guy, being shot so fast in the line of duty. god bless the ones he´s left and hopefully he is in good hands now. I cannot believe that those crazy people shoot without any reason on another human being. It´s insane! Stop selling guns or this will never end!

THEIR SACRIFICE IS TREMENDOUS, AND IF THEY COULD, THEY WOULD TELL US

"I have laid down my life in service to all of you.
I have been a part of the fabric that has held the line between your safety and your victimization. I have given my life so that others may live in peace. I have lived my life as a dedicated member of the greatest profession. There is no greater honor.

As I now become a part of the rich history of law enforcement, please remember me always for I have left behind those who loved and depended upon me.
My partners and my agency, please remember my family, their loss, and don’t let time soften your compassion for them.

You guard the gate now and I will continue my watch from above."

MAY YOU REST IN PEACE AND MAY YOUR FAMILY FIND COMFORT IN THE GOOD YOU HAVE DONE HERE ON EARTH. THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE TO US ALL.
