Keep Your Dogs & Cats Safe From Holiday Hazards
That spirit animated Ariel Rios in life and it led him to keep his oath unto death . It represents the highest aspiration of our profession – the standard by which law enforcement officers measure themselves each and every day .
And so , on this solemn occasion , let we who are gathered here today resolve to honor the memory of Special Agent Rios not only by bestowing his name upon this building , but by emulating his spirit in our work .
Let us reaffirm our commitment to the ideals he served so well . And let us continue to build the more just , the more peaceful – the more perfect – union for which he gave his life .
May God bless the memory of Special Agent Ariel Rios and shelter his family in his everlasting grace . May He bless all the fallen in our law enforcement family and protect all those who continue to serve . And may He continue to bless the United States of America .
- Attorney General Loretta E . Lynch
