About the Book
IN
LOVING MEMORY OF MY BROTHER
NEW JERSEY
STATE TROOPER
CARLOS M.
NEGRON
A true story
“When our wives kiss us goodbye in the morning, they
wonder when we will be home for dinner. When a cop’s
wife kisses her husband goodbye in the morning, she wonders if
he will be home for dinner.”
--Carlos Negron, 8th
grade
Carlos, a New Jersey State Trooper, was
killed in the line of duty on the New Jersey turnpike on May 7, 1984.
This book commemorates the 20th anniversary of his death.
“Nothing can lessen the sadness, remedy the injustice, or recapture
the special character of this noble man. His courage and hard work can
be remembered, but his life can never be relived. Carlos’ efforts
should be an example to all those striving to serve the citizens of
[New Jersey] and make it a safer place to live.”
—Thomas H. Kean, Governor, November 4, 1985.
