To the Sierra and Cincinnati Police Department Families of Sgt. Eric Sierra (District 3 - Westwood Community Neighborhood Friend and Community Officer):

"Sgt. Sierra will be missed. He never missed a beat when you asked him for his assistance no better how simple or complex the request was. Eric had a way about him. A very gentle and kind approach. We could count on him via e-mail and voicemail or at WCA Meetings, District 3 Resource Meetings, National Night Out, and other events. May Our Lord look over the Sierra and CPD families. We thank you for allowing Sgt. Eric Sierra to share his wealth of knowledge and good will amongst the District 3 (Westwood) Community."

SGT Sierra and his families - personal and law enforcement - are in our thoughts and prayers. He was a highly respected veteran supervisor and cannot easily be replaced. I worked with him in two districts and rate him among the best. May he rest in peace and may His eternal light shine upon him.
