Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

I am sad to learn of the passing of a Brother and Hero in Police Officer Nicholas Vella. I believe our Heavenly Father has welcomed him home into his loving arms where he will now patrol the Golden Streets of Heaven. May the Lord deliver Blessings, Comfort and Peace to his Family, Friends and all Members of the Huntington Beach Police Department, California.
