| Police Officers Give Family Struggling With Illness An Early ‘Blue' Christmas To Remember |
A South L.A. family received an early Christmas surprise from suited do-gooders in blue, not red. Officers with the Los Angeles Police Department provided some holiday cheer for the Lopez family. Mother Angelina was diagnosed with cancer a few years ago, but her illness came back and aggressively spread to other parts of body. As part of “Operation Blue Christmas,” an initiative of the Los Angeles Police Protective League, officer Yesenia Rodriguez and Sgt. Jerretta Sandoz showed up to ease some of that pain, emotionally, at least, with cheer and presents for the family of six.
