NYPD Officer Jason Rivera funeral serviceFox 5 NY, Jan 28, 2022
NEW YORK - A funeral mass was held Friday at St. Patrick's Cathedral for New York City Police Officer Jason Rivera. Thousands of law enforcement converged along with family, friends and the public to pay their final respects to the married, 22-year-old who was gunned down in Harlem last week.
Roman Catholic Cardinal Timothy Dolan presided over Rivera's service, held in Spanish and English in recognition of his Dominican heritage. Many of the city’s top leaders were attending, as uniformed officers filled the pews.
Rivera and his partner, Police Officer Wilbert Mora, were shot when they responded to a mother's call for help with her adult son in Harlem last Friday. Mora's funeral would take place week, also at St. Patrick's.
"It doesn't really matter what uniform we wear," said Master Police Officer Tammy Russel. "We're from Fairfax County, Virginia, but we're here in New York City. These are all our brothers and sisters. ... Sadness all around."
