On behalf of POINT 27, we would like to offer condolences for Corrections Officer Shelia Rivera. Please know we are eternally grateful for Shelia’s service and her ultimate sacrifice.

To honor Corrections Officer Rivera, POINT 27 sent 27 Thin Blue Line Dog Tag Necklaces, engraved with “Blessed are the Peacemakers for they will be called children of God” Matthew 5:9, to the Cook County Sheriff’s Department, Chicago, Illinois for Shelia’s partner and fellow officers. POINT 27 sent Folded Flag Necklaces engraved with “Greater Love has no one than this; than to lay down one’s life for one’s friend” John 15:13 for Corrections Officer Riveria husband and son.

POINT 27 is a Non-Profit organization with a mission to strengthen and encourage members of the Armed Forces, First Responders, and their families, by sharing scripture on Dog Tags and Jewelry called Shields of Strength.

We will never forget and we are forever grateful.

Respectfully,
