Officer Down Memorial Page

27 years have gone by and it feels like i just saw you yesterday for the last time. I remember how proud I was when you became a Phoenix Police Officer to think that my Tio Nacho would wear a badge and protect us all from harm. I would never fear anyone or anything because I have my Tio on my side and he wore a badge. Today I am still very proud of you and the way you lived your life, and how you cared for others even those you didnt know. But you did we were your community, and you knew the danger that surronded your friends, family, and those you pass everyday. You took a stand to not complain about what was happing, but to help in any way even if it would one day take your life and you would leave everything you knew in your life behind. Today your children, nieces, nephew and grandchildren still remember you most by the stories and memories that those who were here to know you tell. I recently met one or your fellow brothers and I spoke of you to him. I was so PROUD to do so. I listened to him as he spoke of how people treat and think of officers, not realizing the chance they take every day to leave on there shift and may not return. But there are those who do know and who are greatful for you who wear the blue and I am one of those people. I Miss and Love you very much Tio Nacho. Love Forever Your Niece Nonie.
