Officer Genaro Guerrero died from complications as the result of contracting COVID-19 in a presumed exposure while on duty at the San Ysidro Port of Entry in California.
Officer Guerrero had served with the United States Customs and Border Protection - Office of Field Operations for 16 years and had previously served with the San Diego County Sheriff's Department for 15 years. He is survived by his wife and four children.
Beginning in early 2020, thousands of law enforcement officers and other first responders throughout the country contracted COVID-19 during the worldwide pandemic due to requirements of their job. Many of these first responders have died as a result of COVID-19, and continue to do so as the virus spreads across the United States.

Most Recent Reflection
View all 42 ReflectionsThe true measure of a person
is not found in the
might of their arm,
their wealth
or their power –
it is found in the strength
of their character.
There is no greater testimony to
ones character, than ones
willingness to sacrifice all,
in the noble quest of
providing protection to all
whom they serve.
