Maritza Ramos, widow of slain NYPD Officer Rafael Ramos, celebrated the renovation of her mortgage-free home in Cypress Hill, Brooklyn, funded by the Tunnel to Towers Foundation. This event followed the tragic loss of her husband and his partner, Wenjian Liu, killed in the line of duty. The community rallied to support the Ramos family, with funds raised amounting to $1.2 million to help pay off their mortgage and renovate their home. Maritza expressed her heartfelt gratitude for the generosity shown by countless individuals, emphasizing the strength and pride felt by her family amid their grief.
I truly thank you from the bottom of my heart, she said on the front porch of her modest two-story home on a quiet residential street. We appreciate what America has done for us.
Proud that you have decided to stay in the home you both shared and for the dignity and strength you have shown.
