Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Det. Perez, on today, the 23rd anniversary of your death I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice-not just for your Community but for our Country as well when you served with the U.S.Navy. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Al, today marks 23 years since you went away. The pain of losing you never goes away, I have just learned to live with it. Our children are beautiful adults that make me proud every day. They each have a little of you in them, and I feel you closest when we are all together. I love you now and forever!

Over two decades and I still miss you so much. Its still surreal that I was on the phone with you the day of the accident. We have so many memories that I cherish. Until we meet again.

I never got to meet you, but my Dad has told me about you since I was little. The more I learned about you the more I wanted to follow in your footsteps and become a Police Officer too. I have been a Police Explorer now for about a year and I decided I'm going to keep working hard and become either a Police Officer or cardio surgeon. I can't wait till I can meet you. Thank you for your service. I will never forget you.

It’s coming up on sixteen years. I know I was only barely six when you were taken from our lives, but I still think of you everyday. Your sons are about to graduate from high school and myself from college (which i would not have been able to do without the support of those who support the families of fallen officers) I love you forever papi and I hope i am making you proud.

This September marks the 8th year H.I.S.L.E.A. will honor Al with awarding a scholorship in his name. The "Alvin Perez Memorial Scholarship" is given to a student persuing a degree in teaching. Al had been hired to teach Criminal Justice classes at Triton College in River Grove, IL. He was to begin a week after his fatal accident.

God knows why Al was given to me for 7 short years, but I will carry him in my heart forever. Our three children, 14 & two 10, are told stories often and reminded of how much of their Papi they carry with them.

Al, I miss you so much, I look forward to the day we are reunited.

Forgive me for missing the anniversary of your E.O.W., but I felt as though I could not continue to read about so many tragedies. I now realize the visit each day to leave a word of encouragement and hope to the loved ones of others, helps me to remember that I am not alone with my pain and heartbreak. So may I say to your friends and loved ones that my thoughts and prayers are with them now and always. Continue to keep watch over them and those still out on patrol and may they know you will never be forgotten.
