Although I did not know Ofcr.Wrede personally. I heard
alot about him. unfortunately it was after his E.O.W.
His story was told to our Class# 121 at Rio Hondo
Police Academy in Whittier California.

My sincere sympathy goes out to his family. And please
know this that Ofcr. Wrede,although he payed the
ultimate sacrafice, is a hero in the eyes of us always.

Dispatch show him 10-7

Every day when you pin that badge on your shirt and go 10-8 you go to work to make things better for society.You attempt to provide the community a better place to live , and in doing so we take a risk , a risk that can be the ultimate sacrfice. Ofcr. Wrede's death was unfortunate , and I'm saddened to see his video as a training topic when I was in the Police academy , Rio Hondo Class 157.
Rest in peace Officer Wrede , and thank you for your sacrifice.

When officer Wrede made the supreme sacrifice, I had just celebrated my 12th Birthday, and was living in West Covina. I remember the funeral prosession passing by as I watched from a local golf course. I was so impressed with the way he was honored, I had a new found respect for police officers and what they have to deal with. I'm sure that day had much to do with the career choice I made later in life. Officer Wrede is remembered.
