President and Mrs. Bush Saddened by Death of Officer Favela of Honolulu Police Department
Laura and I are deeply saddened by the death of Officer Steve Favela of the Honolulu Police Department. Officer Favela died from injuries he suffered while protecting us during our visit to Hawaii. We send our condolences to his wife, Barbara, his entire family, and his fellow law enforcement officers. We pray that God will comfort them and that their friends and loved ones will sustain them in this difficult time.
Officer Favela risked his life every day to protect the people of his community. In this time of great sadness, we give thanks for his life of service.
