Garcia has been with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department  for 15 years, and with the SCV Sheriff’s station since 2009. His wife works as a law enforcement technician ( dispatcher) for LASD.

“My job is challenging and it can be stressful at times but it gives me great satisfaction to know that I am able to help serve the community by making sure we have patrol deputies scheduled around the clock, ready and able to respond to calls at any given moment,” Garcia said.

He is even known to sometimes cover shifts himself if there is an unfilled vacancy. Garcia can be seen at the station at all hours.

Ramirez is “one of the hardest workers that he has come across during his time on with the department,” according to one of the deputies at the station. He is known by his colleagues for his calm, pleasant demeanor and professionalism.

“I do like my job,” Ramirez said. “It definitely makes me feel good to know I’m able to make a difference through my interactions with others.”

“And my co-workers at SCV Sheriff’s Station,” Ramirez added, “They are my second family, my law enforcement family. They are like brothers and sisters to me.”
