Reflections for Police Officer Edwin Hernandez

I used to own a body shop that did repairs for highway patrol. Eddie was one of the guys that I fixed the cars for. He was a wonderful fun guy and always a pleasure to see when he walked through the door . My brother worked and went through the academy with Eddie . He was totally devastated when he heard the horrible news……we all were RIP my friend ,soon it will be twenty years and I still can’t believe it

I Just thought of Officer Hernandez out of the Blue ? I did not know him very well, He worked part-time doing security for the Cigarette & Candy I worked for and he was in charge of security. He was approachable,affable and fun to be around, he would make you laugh lol, But was also very serious about his job and making sure everybody was safe and ok. He was a Total stand up and Decent individual. Rest in Peace, Officer Hernandez.

I was so caught up in my own life to understand that losing u was the first time I had to stop and deal with emotions I had spent years repressing... even in ur absence u somehow were able to force me to become better...

I had the hardest time seeing the pain ur loss left on the people I loved. But, in that darkness, the light of ur legacy truly began to brighten. Ur daughter grew up to be a classy knockout, and ur son is a man that only honors the name u shared.

All that u loved, with that blessing, have become the people ive always need honored to know. So much has changed, I don't see them as much these days. But, i stalk them in this stupid social media thing...

Ur lucky u avoided it.. it's a real problem lol

Let light guide us all back together some day soon

10 years Ed, not a day passes that I don't have great thoughts of the memories. I'm proud to have served with you, and had you as a true friend. Gone but never forgotten.

We love you Bud, Paul & Kathy

Edwin, I cannot believe in a few hours it will be 10 years since I have spoken to you, or laughed with you. There are not enough words to describe how much I miss you. Everyday I find myself reminiscing and thinking of all the fun times we shared. You and Cora were my second parents and I am forever grateful for all the things you taught me and all the things we shared. I wish everyday that you could have been a part of my wedding and my son. I know you are always looking down on us. I love you and miss you sooo much. Until we meet again..........xoxoxo always in my heart -Melissa-

So much has changed in the last ten years, but the hurt still feels the same. I can only hope your looking down and are proud of how everyone has held up in your absence. I know I speak about you daily with the girls and now lil Vic. They know whenever we drive on the expressway and daddy is listening to Eddie Santiago "Lluvia" or Willie Colon "El Gran Varon" that it's a special moment and they just bop there heads as I tap the steering wheel with one hand as you did whenever we were in the car together. As I sit here at Holy Sep, I can still smell that damn Giorgio cologne you used to love. I lost my best friend 10 years ago tonight at 12:05a. But I will never loose or forget anything you ever taught me. Your memory lives on forever in my heart and soul. I Love you "Champy".

I was the first person to reach him, and was alone with him for ten or fifteen minutes... He did not suffer. He was killed on impact. Outwardly, his body was undamaged. JT Chiarella
