Reflections for Deputy Constable Mercedes Torres, Sr.
Thank you to those who left a message and condolences on behalf of my Grandfather. I did not have the opportunity to meet my grandfather. My Mother was his daughter and she and her siblings were very young when my Grandfather was shot. He died in the only hospital that was nearby at the time, Valley Baptist Medical Center. My grandfather was a very big inspiration to all his grandchildren and we were very honored to have been a part of this beautiful memorial that his name was included in. Thank you on behalf of all his grandchildren
