Dear Friend,
Today, I stood in solidarity with hundreds of Yonkers residents in honor of fallen NYPD Detective Jason Rivera.
The feelings resonating inside me during his final send-off left me confused, outraged, yet still optimistic. It isn't easy to summarize the emotions in a single word, but seeing the hundreds of people standing shoulder to shoulder to pay tribute to Det. Rivera reminded me of the good that still exists.
As painful as this moment was, it is a wake-up call reminding us of the men and women who go out each and every day to serve and protect people in our communities. For that, we say thank you.
May God bless Detective Jason Rivera.
Best wishes,
MIKE SPANO
Mayor
