Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

To Vince's Family,
While assigned to Southwest Division, I had the pleasure of being Vince's partner on many nights. I was a young officer and, like many, I was very impressionable. I was always impressed by Vince's energy and initiative. He loved throwing the bad guys in jail and it was infectious. He was a role model for all of us.

I was a former LAPD officer assigned to Southwest Div. with Vince. He was a good police officer and a good friend and his loss affected many of us deeply. My condolences to his family, friends, and LAPD brothers and sisters.

Officer Leusch:

Thank you for your sacrifice. While I know many do not show it, the majority of citizens are grateful for what you did.

Rest in peace.

A Grateful Citizen
