Officer Sintic... I was at the cemetery in Chatsworth last weekend to honor the memory of my brother-in-law, CHP Officer Enright, resting nearby. I placed a beautiful white flower on both of your plaques. I hold a special place in my heart for officers of the Los Angeles Police Department. I grew up in the valley, circa 1957, and once almost joined LAPD. You were a member of one of the finest law enforcement agencies in the United States. Thanks again for your service.
