Hi, CONGRATS!!!!!! guess what? our daughter and her husband are giving us our 4th grandchild, yes, I know what you are going to say "two hands, two kids" well, I guess she listen, because she is using her two hands and her husbands too, so that makes 4--- we are happy, and hoping this one will be the girl, little Javi said that he will be asking the dr. for a girl and that "this one is Emily", talk to God and see if he can send us our Emily(Jessica wants to name it after you). Tell my dad and your dad about it...
I just got back last night from COPS Surviving Spouse weekend, as always it was great; there were about 90 surviving spouses, one nigth at the campfire the starts were all out and some were saying that those were all our husbands looking down on us, and I hope it was true.

We love you and miss you always

Emilio,

Rest in God's loving arms, where you will never be hurt again. Judging by the reflections left at your site by your wife, you were loved by a wonderful woman...but you know that. I have seen her reflections left at other officers' sites, trying to help the loved ones of other fallen officers; what a great thing for her to do! Watch over your family and all of us officers who are still walking the beat down here. See you when my time comes.

Just wanted to stop in and leave a reflection and say that I was thinking of you today and that you have not been forgotten. Keep watch over your loved ones, even after 20 years they think of you each and every day and will for as long as they walk this earth. You are a true hero and heroes never die.

To everyone that writes reflections on Emilio's page, thank you and it makes us feel good to know that people still care and don't forget even if they never met him, to all who still keep us in your prayers 'God Bless you' and keep you and your family safe.

As I read your wife's reflections, I see that your anniversary was my birthday. How funny how life works sometimes, a joyous day for me is a day of pain for those you left behind.

Though it has been 20 years, you have not been, and will never be!, forgotten. I think of your wife and children in my prayers everyday. I remember your sacrifice. Forever 27 is what comes to mind when I think of you. My friend Peter will be forever 27 as well. We miss him so... and I know that you welcomed him with hugely open arms when he joined you in Heaven last year.

God bless you Emilio for what you did for your community and for our country. Having read your information, it only serves as a sober reminder that a shoplifter is not always just a shoplifter, a speeder not always just a speeder, a "routine" call not always so routine. I'm sorry you were taken from your love and your children, your family and your department of friends and brothers and sisters in blue. I thank you everyday in my prayers, and I keep your loved ones there, as well.

God bless

Well here we are again 8/19/06, it would have been our wedding anniversary, I guess you, your dad, my dad, and your grandma are celebrating without us, and all of us on this side of the "rainbow" are wishing that you guys were all here.

Your grandkids are growing Javi will be 4 next month, Jonathan is 2 and Jovanny is 10 mnths. The kids, Emi and Jessi, great as always. Please, tell my dad that we miss him and love him, and that we are taking care of my mom.

I love you and HAPPY ANNIVERSARY...

To all that have sent reflections to Emilio I would like to say "thanks' to the ones that knew him thank you for not forgetting and to the new "friends" thank you for dropping by, you don't know what it means to see a reflection written to him, it makes us the family feels that he will never be forgotten, not only by us, but for generations to come.... GOD BLESS YOU...

Hello Terry. Its been a long time since I've gotten in contact with you. How have you been? I have been keeping Emilio and your family in my prayers. I finally did get into law enforcement but i dont think it's what I want. You really have to love the job to do it. Emilio must have loved his job. Well, I hope you and the family and your grandbaby are doing well. God Bless..

I salute you. You are a hero. I never knew you but I have met your wife three times and she is a blessing to me. It gives me hope to learn about your children spending time with your mother. It saddens me to think that twenty years ago you were such a promising and young man with so many dreams and plans and a beautiful family that you had to leave behind. It strengthens me to learn that your family presses forward with so much love in their hearts for you and others. I salute your family for their example of love for you and survivors like me. Thank you for your ultimate sacrifice to protect and serve so that others might live and live in abundance.

Two decades will soon have passed since your tour of duty ended. During that time I am sure enough tears have fallen from the eyes of those that love you that would fill a small pond that they could all sit at and think of all the good memories of you. All any of us have that have lost a loved one in the line of duty is yesterdays as our tomorrows have been taken away. You will always be in the hearts of those that love you and you will never be forgotten. You are a true hero. Keep watch over your loved ones and protect them from harm. Also, keep watch over those still out on patrol.

by Mary E. Frye:
Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am the sunlight on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there. I did not die

Rest in peace, Brother…

I was working in Miami when this happened.
My prayers to the Miyares family.

Hi Honey, Happy Easter: Today, I went back to the church were we used to go to; and our daughter and her husband attended mass with me and your 3 gradkids were there too, they behave so good, I was so proud of them, it brought so many good memories back.. When Mass was over the kids went outside to play, and Javi wanted to take a picture with the Angel (what a coincidence the Angel is Michael)and he and Jonathan took a picture. I miss you so very much and there were times that I got a little sentimental, because that was also the Church were we had the Services when you died.

We miss you as always and more...your wife and family
