"Hector was the kind of man that always put his family first. Hector was more then a friend, If you were his friend he thought of and treated you as a brother. When Hector's final roll call bell was rung we not only lost a dedicated Police Officer that served the citizens of Chicago with honor and dignity. His family lost a loving and dedicated Son, Husband, and Father. Hector is truly a Hero in every sense of the word." - Joe Sangirardi
