Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Rest in Paradise Hector. I was living in the 47th Precinct when the Cops were responding to this call. I won’t forget that day & learning that a Cop was shot. Terrible day.

I still say I Love You,
But now there's no reply.
I always feel your presence
As if you never left my side.

I remember your comforting voice.
Now there's not a sound.
Only echoes from the past
Follow me around.

You're always by my side,
But I can't hold your hand.
The reason why God took you
I find hard to understand.

Summer days seem much shorter.
Dark nights just linger on.
Dreams turn into nightmares
When the one you love has gone.

But real love never fades.
It still burns like the sun.
Although they're far away,
Those memories go on and on.

His spirit will never die
It shines like the stars.
I know you're sleeping in heaven,
But you're living in my heart.

Hector you was my first love and always will be, I forgave you a long time ago, I think of you often.. R.I.P. my love

Time continues to pass, grateful for each minutes God continues to bless me with. However, time never erases the great memories I shared with you. Nor does time erase the pain of losing you way too early.
I am grateful for the time I had with you, just wish we could have spent a lifetime together but God seemed to have needed you more.
Thanks for the memories and thank you for watching over me from above.
Love Caroline

It was my honor to research newspapers, magazines, online & books to find your ID CARD Photo. I found this photo in a 1991 NYPD MEDAL DAY BOOKLET about your heroic sacrifice. I felt it was necessary to have a photo on this website so that your family & friends can remember you. Rest Easy Hero! Always Remembered!
