Avenue of Fallen
Standing at attention in their class “A“uniforms, badges gleaming and shoes like glass, are your brothers and sisters of Law Enforcement All of whom have previously paid the ultimate price. Today, like many others, they welcome you to this wonderful place.
As you march down the Avenue of the Fallen, all eyes focus on you as if to say “it’s OK, you’re with your eternal partners.”
A salute is followed and a tear can be seen on so many faces.
Welcome, you served well.
Now come join us in the ranks, another is coming home.

My deepest condolences goes out to not only BPA Martinez’s son, fiancé, parents and the rest of his family through his blood line, but it also goes out to my green family. As a mother of a fallen BPA BE103, JOEY Barraza, our young men and woman are making a sacrifice each and everyday, with less armor than an army to try and protect our country. There are no words for this act that can be placed here to make anyone less angry, sad, empty or any other emotion that will come up. All I can offer is a shoulder for your loved ones, to cry on when it’s needed. Sir, your parents raised a fine man, because you and your partner ran to the danger to protect all of us. What an act of courage, and most of all. HONOR! You will be missed by all, but now it’s time to REST. We’ll take it from here sir!!! RIP and YOU’LL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN!!!

We offer our heartfelt sympathy to the family, friends and colleagues of Border Patrol Agent Rogelio Martinez and we honor his distinguished service to the cause of justice and peace. Sadly, our nation has lost one of its finest citizens, a community has lost a friend and protector, and a family has lost an example of character and courage who they will love and respect forever.
To the family, friends, and colleagues of Agent Martinez, I would like you to know that a lot of people pray for you, and my hope is that their prayers will give you the strength necessary to move on. Just as you were always with him when he patrolled our borders, know that he will always be with you - wherever you may be. In the days to follow, may you be strengthened by the fact that Agent Martinez is a man distinguished by exceptional courage and will always be admired for his brave deeds and noble qualities. You, your family, and your sacrifice will never be forgotten.
