Stay safe!
Lt. Joe Rizzuti's letter (in regard to the death of Roger Dipesa) perfectly expressed what most Revere-ites felt for Roger. His words resonated deep within my own heart with a beauty not often expressed through the police's work. It's good to know that Roger wasn't treated as just some nuisance by the RPD which, before having read the letter, is what I would have believed had I given it any serious thought. My own experiences with Roger never went past giving him a couple dollars whenever I happened past him on my way home from work or school, always thinking that I was doing my watching daughter more of a service than him. Having lived in Revere only a short time, I figured that since he was able to smoke Winston Brand cigarettes that he had to have some family or disability money supporting his life on the streets. Finding out that the community probably gave him most of his financial support makes me glad to have become a Revere resident myself.
Sgt John Nelson thank you for finding my cat larry.
Thanks to the officer who went out of his way to find me so that my car would not be towed. 
I would also like to thank the officer that helped me in front of Stop and Shop the other day when I locked my keys in the car. He was very nice.
I would like to thank the Police Department for the great job they did during my Fathers Funeral Procession on Friday 2/15/08. They did a great job. The few times I have needed the Police they have always been there to help. Were would we be without them?
Kudos to the Revere Police Department for honoring and remembering the life of Sgt. Papsadora. Choosing to include this announcement on the front page of your website demonstrates courage and professionalism. I commend you for taking that step and helping to break the silence about this type of cop killer. My condolences to the department and his family during this difficult time. You will walk a double road of grief--sorrow in missing him and sorrow that knowing he was in pain and you could not fix it.
I agree Joe. The vast majority of us support the police, and the others are the people who post the nonsense on the other sites. Lets make this the police support message board! Anybody have a good RPD story?
You're doing a great job, RPD. Keep your heads up; the GOOD citizens of Revere support you!
